Ingredients
4 egg whites
1-1/2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
1/3 cup butter, cubed
3 egg yolks
1 cup packed brown sugar
1 container (2-1/2 ounces) prune baby food
5 tablespoons strong brewed coffee
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
FROSTING:
3 tablespoons butter, softened
1/3 cup baking cocoa
3 tablespoons fat-free milk
3/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
1-1/2 cups confectioners' sugar

Steps:

Place egg whites in a small bowl; let stand at room temperature for 30 minutes. Coat a 9-in. springform pan with cooking spray. Place pan on a baking sheet; set aside. In a small saucepan, melt chocolate chips and butter over low heat, stirring constantly. Remove from the heat; set aside to cool slightly.
In a large bowl, beat egg yolks on high speed for 3 minutes or until thick and lemon-colored. Gradually beat in brown sugar. Beat in the baby food, coffee and reserved chocolate mixture.
Combine the flour, salt and cinnamon; gradually beat into the chocolate mixture. With clean beaters, beat egg whites and cream of tartar on high speed until stiff peaks form; fold into batter.
Spread evenly into prepared pan. Bake at 350° for 40-50 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out with moist crumbs. Cool for 15 minutes before removing sides of pan. Cool completely on a wire rack.
For frosting, in a small bowl, beat the butter, cocoa, milk and vanilla until smooth. Gradually beat in confectioners' sugar. Frost top of cake. Refrigerate leftovers. Yield: 12 servings.
