Helpful hints

  • For people with diabetes, leave off the icing to reduce calories to 252 and carbohydrate to 33 g. Count as 2 carbohydrate choices.
  • To reduce fat you can replace half the oil with unsweetened applesauce.
  • Pecans are high in potassium and phosphorus. The amount contributed to one piece of cake is minimal as long as the recommended portion is followed. Otherwise you can reduce to 1/2 cup pecans or leave them out.
