Ingredients
- 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 0.5 cups unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 cup Splenda granular (or similar sugar substitute)
- 1.5 teaspoons baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
- 0.5 cups unsweetened applesauce
- 1 cup buttermilk (low-fat or fat-free)
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.5 cups boiling water
Directions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9-inch round or square cake pan, or line it with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Stir in the Splenda granular to combine.
Step 3
In another bowl, whisk together the unsweetened applesauce, buttermilk, egg, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Step 4
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently mix until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Step 5
Slowly add the boiling water to the batter, stirring gently. The batter will be thin, which is normal.
Step 6
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan, smoothing out the top with a spatula if necessary.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven for 28 to 32 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Step 8
Remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before serving.
Step 9
Optional: Dust with additional Splenda or garnish with fresh berries for added sweetness and presentation!
