I know, tsk,tsk,tsk, but I didn't know last night that I would be sharing the recipe. Geeez! At least there are only 2 pieces missing, so we restrained ourselves.
All you need:
Boxed cake mix (this was a Duncan Hines Devil's Food), but it's your choice
1 cup of water
3 eggs
1/2 cup applesauce (I used sugar-free)
Just put it all together in a bowl & mix it thoroughly. I didn't want to pull out the KitchenAid, so I just used my Cuisinart Stick Mixer. That thing really whips it up, which I think made it extra fluffy after it was baked. You can put it in whatever size dish you prefer. I used a 9X13 sprayed it with Pam, & baked at 350* for about 40 min. Ovens may vary, so adjust your time accordingly. I let it cool while we had dinner & then spread the top with Sugar-free (sweetened with Splenda) canned Cherry Pie filling. Of course, I also added a dollop of Lite Cool Whip to each serving. This was so good. Even The Man liked it & he's not much of a cake-eater.
ENJOY!!!

ReplyDeleteLooks Yummy! Love "low fat" chocolate!!!
ReplyDeleteYou had me at chocolate! My mom always made me a cherry covered cheesecake and this reminded me of that...delish!
ReplyDeleteWOW that is delish looking. That would have been long gone in my house by now.
ReplyDeleteI'll definitely try this recipe. I think I have all the ingredients in the pantry so I'll make it tonight. I try to lighten up some of my recipes. I have a grape salad recipe on my blog that I recently made with Splenda, etc. It was good!

ReplyDeleteSounds nice and easy and yummy:@)
ReplyDeleteOh wow, that looks so good. And clever. I bet the applesauce makes it super moist, too.
ReplyDeleteI love the idea of a lighter version of chocolate cake! It looks so pretty with the cherries on top too :)
