List of Ingredients




2 oz unsweetened baking chocolate square(s)
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1 Tbsp unsweetened cocoa
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp table salt
1/3 cup reduced-calorie margarine
1/2 cup light brown sugar, firmly packed
1/4 cup sugar
1/2 cup regular egg substitute
1/4 cup canned sweetened applesauce
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 cup chopped walnuts, or pecans
1/3 cup fat-free caramel topping
2 Tbsp sweetened coconut flakes




Recipe



Preheat oven to 350ºF. Lightly coat an 8-inch square cake pan with cooking spray.


Melt chocolate in a double boiler or small saucepan set over a larger saucepan of simmering water. Set aside to cool for 5 minutes.


Sift together flour, cocoa, baking powder and salt; set aside.


In a large mixing bowl, beat together margarine and both sugars until blended and smooth. Add egg substitute and applesauce and mix well. Gradually add melted chocolate and mix well. Beat in vanilla.


Gradually add flour mixture and mix well. Fold in nuts.


Pour batter into prepared pan. Bake 25 minutes. Remove pan from oven and drizzle caramel topping over top. Sprinkle with coconut.


Bake until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean, about 10 more minutes. Cool in pan on a wire rack before cutting into 12 squares.
