2 tablespoons cocoa
1 1/2 cups flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 cup sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 teaspoon vinegar
5 tablespoons cooking oil
1 cup water
Mix all ingredients until 'just mixed'. bake in oil-sprayed baking pan (9x9 or 8x8) @ 350* for 25-30 minutes.
It's 180 cals +/- for 1/12 of the cake. Replacing the oil with apple sauce yeilds 130 cals for 1/12 of the cake!!
Can't really help you on the low cal vanilla frosting, but the chocolate cake is SUPREME. Believe me!
PS- don't let the vinegar turn you off... you can't taste it and it helps the cake to rise (no eggs) - go WW2!
you can make vanilla cream cheese frosting with low fat cream cheese and confectioner's sugar and vanilla extract. Whip the softened cream cheese and beat in a cup or two of powdered sugar and a teaspoon of vanilla extract. It won't firm up on the cake as much as it would if you made it with added butter, but gooey is good, right?
