How to Make Fudgy Low Fat Chocolate Cake Bites

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Spray an 8-inch square baking pan with nonstick cooking spray.
  3. Dust the pan with 1 tablespoon of unsweetened cocoa powder, tapping out excess.
  4. In a large bowl, cream together 1/4 cup (1/2 stick) margarine, 1/4 cup sugar substitute (e.g., Splenda), 1 large egg, 1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until smooth and well combined.
  5. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 cup all-purpose flour, 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
  6. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  7. Pour batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
  8. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs.
  9. Let the cake cool completely in the pan before cutting into 16 squares.
  10. Enjoy! Optional: Top with sugar-free preserves or a sugar-free chocolate drizzle for an extra touch of sweetness.
