Chocolate Spa Cake

SERVES: 24

SERVING SIZE: 1 (2-inch) square

COOK TIME: 24 Min

Can the words "chocolate" and "spa" be used in the same sentence? Of course they can! And topping each serving of our Chocolate Spa Cake with a spoonful of light whipped topping or low-fat yogurt and fresh berries is, well, the icing on the cake!

What You'll Need

3/4 cup (4-1/2 ounces) semisweet chocolate chips
3 tablespoons low-fat (1%) milk
2 tablespoons unsalted margarine
1 cup sugar
3 eggs
1 cup whole-wheat flour
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking soda
3/4 cup chilled coffee

What to Do

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Coat a 9- x 13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
In a small saucepan, melt chocolate chips in milk over low heat; set aside.
In a large bowl, beat margarine and sugar until well mixed. Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Add chocolate mixture; mix until thoroughly combined. Add whole-wheat and all-purpose flours, baking soda, and coffee; continue beating until well combined.
Pour batter into baking dish and bake 22 to 25 minutes, or until a wooden toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Allow to cool completely then cut into squares, and serve.

I use monk fruit sweetener instead of sugar, and you only need to use half as much as sugar.

How is a cake with sugar considered a diabetic cake? I'm just beginning to research this so I'm a bit confused.
