This basic chocolate cake uses less sugar, and extra cocoa. The coffee adds depth to the flavour. I left out extra oil in favour of applesauce, and chose whole-wheat flour for a more healthy cake, as well. Ingredients:
3 cups whole wheat flour |
1 cup sugar |
3/4 cup cocoa |
2 teaspoons baking soda |
1 teaspoon salt |
1/4 cup canola oil |
3/4 cup unsweetened applesauce |
1 cup skim milk |
1 tablespoon lime juice |
2 eggs, beaten |
1 cup strong coffee, hot |
Directions:
1. Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees (F).
2. Mix all dry ingredients together.
3. Add wet ingredients, coffee last, mixing well.
4. Do not over-mix!
5. Bake in pan of choice for 35-40 minutes.
6. You may substitute white flour for whole wheat flour for a lighter, less healthy version.
