LOW FAT CHOCOLATE BUNDT CAKE/POUND CAKE
Excellent cake! You would never know that this is low fat, but it is. Adapted from Chocolate & The Art of Low-Fat Desserts by Alice Medrich. Buy the book! It is well worth it. (PS: I ruin the healthiness of this recipe by using Mean Chef's Chocolate Ganache as a topping! LOL!)

Steps:
- Have all ingredients at room temperature. Position the rack in lower third of the oven.
- Preheat to 350°. Spray pans with vegetable oil spray.
- Weigh & whisk or sift together well flour, cocoa, baking soda, baking powder and salt; set aside.
- Whisk the whole eggs with the egg whites in a small bowl; set aside.
- Dissolve the espresso powder in 3 tablespoons warm water and combine with the vanilla and buttermilk in a small bowl.
- Cut the butter into chunks and place in an electric mixer bowl. Beat to soften, about 1 minute. Add sugar gradually, beating constantly for about 3 minutes at medium speed. Gradually dribble eggs into sugar mixture, beating at medium-high speed for 2 to 3 minutes.
- On medium-low speed, beat in a third of the flour mixture, scraping the bowl as necessary. On medium speed, gradually dribble in half of the buttermilk mixture, scraping the bowl as necessary. On low speed, beat in half of the remaining flour followed by the rest of the buttermilk- scraping the bowl as necessary. Beat in remaining flour mixture until well combined. It is OK if batter looks slightly curdled.
- Scrape batter into the pan or pans and smooth the top as necessary.
- Bake until the cake just starts to shrink away from the sides of the pan and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out barely clean. Do not overbake. A 6-cup bundt cake will be done in 35-40 minutes, a tube or large bundt pan in 50 to 55 minutes; an 8-inch layer takes about 40 minutes and loaves 45-50 minutes.
- Cool cake, in the pan, on a rack for 10 minutes. Invert and remove pan. Turn right side up if baked in loaves. (I nearly always make this in a nordicware bundt pan.).
- MAKE IT AHEAD: Cake remains moist and delicious for 4 to 5 days, well wrapped. Cake may also be frozen for up to 2 months.
- I serve this with Mean Chef's chocolate ganache, which, of course, completely negates any inkling of low-fat sanctimony!

This is the dieters dream cake! It's rich and bold in flavor, but not bad on the waist line. This recipe is also wonderful when it is made with or without the cocoa powder and fresh fruit is added.

Tips:
- Use the right ingredients: Make sure you have all the ingredients you need before you start baking. This will help you avoid any surprises or having to run to the store in the middle of the process.
- Measure your ingredients accurately: This is important for ensuring that your cake turns out properly. Use measuring cups that are clearly marked and make sure you level off the ingredients when measuring them.
- Preheat your oven: This is another important step that helps to ensure that your cake bakes evenly. Preheat your oven to the temperature specified in the recipe before you start mixing the ingredients.
- Grease and flour your bundt pan: This will help to prevent the cake from sticking to the pan and ensure that it comes out cleanly.
- Mix the ingredients in the correct order: The order in which you mix the ingredients can affect the texture and flavor of your cake. Be sure to follow the recipe instructions carefully.
- Do not overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter can make the cake tough and dense. Mix the ingredients just until they are combined.
- Bake the cake according to the recipe instructions: The baking time will vary depending on the size and type of cake you are making. Be sure to check the cake for doneness a few minutes before the end of the baking time.
Conclusion:
With these tips in mind, you can bake a delicious and moist low-fat chocolate bundt cake that is perfect for any occasion. This cake is sure to be a hit with your family and friends, and it is a great way to enjoy a sweet treat without all the guilt.
