 Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
  1       c            Water
    1/2   c            Prune puree (see note below)
                       -or prepared prune butter
  3       lg           Egg whites
  1-1/2   ts           Vanilla
  1       c            Plus 2 tb flour
  1       c            Plus 2 tb sugar
    3/4   c            Unsweetened cocoa
  1-1/2   ts           Baking powder
    1/4   ts           Baking soda
    1/4   ts           Salt

 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.
