Recipe - Homemade Chocolate Cake

INGREDIENTS: 
  • 1 1/2 cups sugar (or monk fruit sweetener) 
  • 3 tbsp avocado oil (or coconut oil) 
  • 4 ounces unsweetened apple sauce 
  • 1 large egg 
  • 2 large egg whites 
  • 1 cup HOT brewed coffee 
  • 3/4 cups unsweetened cocoa powder 
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract 
  • 1 cup fat-free milk 
  • 2 cups cake flour (not self-rising)
  • 1 3.9 oz package instant regular or sugar-free chocolate pudding 
  • 1 teaspoon salt 
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder 
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda 
  • 1/4 cup plain fat-free Greek yogurt 
  • spray oil 
DIRECTIONS: Preheat oven to 325°F. Lightly spray and flour your cake pan. Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl combine flour, dry chocolate pudding mix, salt, baking powder and baking soda and set aside. Wet Ingredients: In a medium bowl, combine HOT coffee with the cocoa powder until it dissolves. Slowly add milk and vanilla extract. Set aside. Mix: In a stand mixer on low speed combine the sugar and oil; mix to combine well. Add the applesauce until mixed through. Then add eggs and egg whites until incorporated. Starting with the dry ingredients, slowly add a little of the dry, then a little of the wet ingredients, alternating between wet and dry until all the ingredients are mixed in. Last step is to add the Greek yogurt and just stir to combine. Pour into the cake pan and transfer to oven. Depending on the pan you use, bake for 40 minutes or until toothpick inserted comes out clean. Cupcakes will be closer to 25-30 minutes.
