Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Prepare pound cake batter according to package instructions.
-
Coat a 2-cup oven-safe measuring cup with cooking spray and pour in cake batter. Bake until golden and a toothpick comes out clean, 25 to 30 minutes. Let cool slightly.
-
Repeat step 2 for second cake.
-
Cut tops of each cake, then carve out the middle, leaving a 1/2-inch border so the cake still stands when hollowed out. (Be careful not to carve too deep.)
-
Fill bottom cake with Easter candies (such as foil-wrapped chocolates). Frost ring around the top of the bottom cake.
-
Place top cake on top of bottom cake and frost completely. Decorate egg with sugar pearls.
Why this Easter Surprise Cake works for PCOS
Desserts on a PCOS plan are not banned, but timing and pairing matter. Eating sweet foods immediately after a balanced meal (rather than on an empty stomach) blunts the blood sugar response, since protein and fat slow gastric emptying. This Easter Surprise Cake works best as an occasional post-dinner option rather than a standalone snack.
