INGREDIENTS

INSTRUCTIONS

Preheat oven to 350^.  Coat a 9" square pan with cooking spray.  In a
mixer bowl, combine water, prune puree, egg whites and vanilla.  Beat
thoroughly to blend. Combine flour, sugar, cocoa, baking powder,
baking soda and salt. Beat dry ingredients into liquid mixture.  Spread
batter into prepared pan.  Bake about 30 minutes, or until  cake tests
done. Cool on rack in pan. Serve dusted with powdered  sugar or with
the following icing.  NOTE:  To prepare prune puree, simmer 1/2 c
prunes in water to cover  for about 10 minutes.  Let stand until cool.
Drain well. Force the  prunes through a sieve, leaving behind the skin
particles and seeds.  ICING:  Combine 2 1/2 c powdered sugar, 1/4 c
cocoa and 1/4 c low fat  milk. Spread on cooled cake.  This recipe for
all of you healthy chocolate freaks. Note at the  bottom, there is a
method for making prune puree (very similar to the  WonderSlim product
that no one can find). This recipe comes from an  article about fruit,
since it uses prune puree instead of fat. My one  gripe, about which I
have written to the paper, is that they do NOT  do a nutritional
analysis of a recipe, even though they call it  low-fat. However, those
of us who are experienced in baking low-fat  can see that there is
little fat in this cake.  Posted on GEnie Food & Wine RT Mar 10, 1993
