Recipe Review

Rich chocolate flavor in a light textured cake. You'd never know it is only 241 calories per slice.
My husband prepared this for my birthday cake. Two types of chocolate are used - chocolate chips and cocoa. The layers are lightened by inclusion of yogurt, egg whites (and a few whole eggs) and applesauce. Its baked as two round layers.
After cooling, raspberry preserves are placed between the layers, and a light sprinkling of confectioners sugar sets it off beautifully. This striking cake would be very worthy of company or special occasions.

Thank you so much, friends. Yes, it was a lovely occasion. So much snow that I just stayed home and enjoyed some peace and quiet.
