CHOCOLATE APPLESAUCE BREAD

I got this from another recipe site, so I don't know the original source. It is nice and moist and has a good chocolately flavor. The original recipe said to put it in 2 1-lb. loaf pans, but they were so full that the middle was still gooey when the outside was done, so I'm suggesting 3 pans and a slightly shorter baking time.
