This recipe for all of you healthy chocolate freaks. Note at the bottom,
there is a method for making prune puree (very similar to the WonderSlim
product that no one can find). This recipe comes from an article about
fruit, since it uses prune puree instead of fat. My one gripe, about which
I have written to the paper, is that they do NOT do a nutritional analysis
of a recipe, even though they call it low-fat. However, those of us who are
experienced in baking low-fat can see that there is little fat in this
cake.
