1/4 cup sugar
1 tablespoon cold brewed coffee
2 teaspoons grated orange peel
1/2 cup miniature semisweet chocolate chips
1 cup sugar

1 tablespoon cider vinegar
1 tablespoon vanilla extract

Steps:

In a small bowl, combine the egg white, ricotta cheese, sugar, coffee, and orange peel. Stir in chocolate chips and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl combine the first 8 batter ingredients. Beat until well blended. Combine the flours, cocoa, baking powder, and salt; gradually beat into sugar mixture until blended.
