serves/makes:

ready in:
30-60 minutes

ingredients

non-stick cooking spray and flour for dusting pan
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 3/4 cup sugar
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 tablespoon baking soda
2/3 cup unsweetened applesauce
1 cup fat-free or low-fat buttermilk
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 cup strong brewed coffee

directions

Lightly spray a 13-by-9-by-2-inch pan with vegetable oil spray. Dust with flour; shake off excess.

In a large mixing bowl, sift together flour, sugar, cocoa and baking soda. Whisk in remaining ingredients except coffee.

In a small saucepan, bring coffee to a boil over medium-high heat. Stir gently into batter; the mixture will be soupy. Pour into prepared pan.

Bake in preheated 350 degrees F oven 35 to 40 minutes or until a cake tester or toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Serve warm or let cool completely.
