2 cups all-purpose flour
Sugar substitute equivalent to 3/4 cup sugar
2-1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1-1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1/8 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup unsweetened applesauce
2 Nellie's Free Range Eggs
1/4 cup canola oil
1/4 cup honey
1/4 cup finely chopped walnuts, toasted
OPTIONAL GANACHE:
1/4 cup dark chocolate chips
3 tablespoons heavy whipping cream

Steps:

In a large bowl, combine the first eight ingredients. Whisk the applesauce, eggs, oil and honey. Stir into dry ingredients just until moistened. Fold in walnuts.
Pour into a 9-in. square baking pan coated with cooking spray. Bake at 350° for 15-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool completely on a wire rack.
For optional ganache, place chocolate chips in a small bowl. In a microwave, heat cream for 20-30 seconds or just until bubbly. Pour over chocolate; whisk until smooth. Cool slightly; drizzle over cake.
Yield: 12 servings.
