Title: Guilt-Free Fudge Cake
Categories: Lowfat Cake
Yield: 4 Servings

1	c	Roughly chopped pitted (make
		Sure all pits are gone!)
		Prunes
1/4	c	Orange juice
1/4	c	Water
1	c	Cocoa (much better to use
		Dutch process)
2	c	Flour (best to use
		Unbleached)
3/4	c	Sugar, or more healthful
		Substitute like malt sugar
2	ts	Vanilla
2	ts	Baking powder
1	c	Egg whites, or egg
		Substitute
1 1/2	c	Nonfat buttermilk
		Grated rind of an orange

Put prunes and liquid in saucepan and cook about 5 minutes until softened. Process prunes to a paste in food processor (add any liquid in pan, too). After it cools, add egg whites/substitute, vanilla, buttermilk. Mix in dry ingredients. Spread in springform pan (use non-stick spray like Pam). Bake at 350 for 45 minutes or so.(check done-ness by inserting knife in cake). If it's not completely baked, it's still great, since it will have fudgy spots. Can cook longer if necessary. Can be frozen in individual pieces and microwaved. Can be turned into "chocolate decadence" if served with pureed, sweetened raspberries.
