Hi Ladies,

Future FIL's birthday is tomorrow and I'm baking a cake. He loves chocolate. Loves.

I'm trying to find a light recipe (light as in moist and density of the cake and health wise) for chocolate cake?

I'm using Google like any good researcher. :D

Wondering if any of you have a good one to share?

Thanks!

Hi Gerbera,

This is one of my favorite cakes to make....

- One package of Pillsbury Reduced Sugar Devils Food Cake Mix

- One box of sugar free Jello Instant pudding mix

- 1/2 a package of chocolate chips - Semi sweet.

Throw those ingredients in a bowl plus the ingredients that are needed for the cake mix. I swap things out: Eggs = egg beaters, oil = apple sauce. Then bake as it says on the box.

The family recipe that has full fat and sugar doesn't call for frosting but I LOVE frosting so I put a can of the Pillsbury reduced sugar vanilla frosting on it. You do not get the nutrasweet taste with this cake because the chocolate chips balance things out.

I don't know how healthy this truly is but it has to be better than what could be done!
