I found this recipe for low-fat chocolate cake that uses applesauce. It's supposed to be Vegan, too, if you're interested.


Ingredients:


2 cups flour


1 cup sugar


1 tbsp cornstarch


2 tsp baking soda


1/4 tsp salt


1/3 cup cocoa


1 1/2 cups applesauce


Preparation:


Pre-heat oven to 325 degrees. Grease and flour a bundt cake pan. Note: You can use other cake pans, but because this cake is a bit heavy, layered cake pans are not recommended.


Mix all of the dry ingredients together in a large bowl.





Add applesauce and mix well until batter is smooth.





Bake for 50-55 minutes, until done. You can always tell that a cake is finished baking by sticking a toothpick in the center of the cake. If the toothpick comes out clean, that is, not covered in batter, then your cakes is done baking.





Frost, if desired, and enjoy!
