One Bowl Chokolate Raspberry Cake to Die For.. image

This recipe was created for a diabetic for Valentines. I cut both sugar and fat down by adding apples. The beauty of this recipe is that the ingredients are mixed in one step. I still feel the cake gets too dry (crumbly) after a few days. Would greatly appreciate other bakers suggestions. Are afraid to add more liquid, as the middle gets even more dense. This is my third cake in three weeks; I will not be able to fit my pants if I have to keep fiddling with this recipe.

Time 1h20m

Yield 1 10, 12-14 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
2 cups sugar or 2 cups Splenda sugar substitute, equal amount
3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa
2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon cinnamon
2 teaspoons vanilla
1 cup tart apples, shredded (packed) or 3/4 cup unsweetened applesauce
1 cup nonfat milk
3/4 cup becel margarine or 3/4 cup butter, melted
4 large eggs (240-260 g total weight)
12 ounces dark chocolate
1 1/2 cups frozen raspberries, 250g (not defrosted) or 1 1/2 cups fresh raspberries
4 tablespoons coarse sugar (Perle sugar)

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Peel, shred and measure apples.
  • In large mixing bowl, combine first dry ingredients.
  • Then add shredded apples, milk, butter, and eggs.
  • Beat at low speed until moistened; about 2 minutes at medium speed.
  • Pour into cake pan.
  • Cover top of cake batter with raspberries, and stick chocolate pieces into batter all around the cake. Press gently raspberries and chocolate pieces halfway into batter, sprinkle with coarse sugar.
  • Bake for 50-60 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean. This is a little tricky since all the melted chocolate on top. I shake the form gently and if the batter no longer seems soft in the middle I deem it done.
  • Cool on wire racks for 60 minutes; remove from pan and cool.
  • Serve with vanilla ice cream or 2 cups crème fraiche sweetened with 4 tsp powdered vanilla sugar.
