1/3 cup sugar
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder, sifted
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 large egg

LOW FAT, LOW CARB, 55-SECOND WHEAT-FREE CHOCOLATE PUDDING CAKE



Low Fat, Low Carb, 55-Second Wheat-Free Chocolate Pudding Cake image

This is my version of the microwave chocolate cake - only I don't cook it for the full minute - stopping just short of a minute yields a pudding cake - and is really delicious. This is also lower in fat and carbs and is wheat/gluten-free. I exchanged half and half for butter and milk, and replaced the 1 T flour with cocoa (which is, technically, a flour) for all you gluten-allergic, cake-starved folks out there.

Time 2m

Yield 1 serving, 1 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa (I use Hershey's Special Dark)
2 tablespoons Splenda sugar substitute
2 1/2 tablespoons half-and-half
1 egg
1/8 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Spray coffee mug with non-stick spray.
  • Mix all ingredients until well blended.
  • Add a very scant pinch of salt.
  • Microwave for about 55 seconds - just until the mixture rises above the rim of the cup. If you cook it much longer, it gets rubbery.
  • Yes, it's pretty good topped with Cool-Whip or sugar free ice cream or a little more half-and-half.

Tips:

  • Use unsweetened almond milk: This will help keep the pudding low in fat and calories, while still providing a creamy texture.
  • Use dark chocolate: Dark chocolate is a healthier choice than milk chocolate or white chocolate, as it is lower in sugar and higher in antioxidants.
  • Sweeten with honey or maple syrup: These natural sweeteners are a healthier alternative to refined sugar.
  • Add a pinch of salt: Salt can help to balance out the sweetness of the pudding and create a more complex flavor.
  • Chill the pudding before serving: This will help it to thicken and set properly.

Conclusion:

This low-fat chocolate pudding is a delicious and healthy dessert option that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. It is easy to make and can be customized to your liking. Whether you like your pudding rich and chocolatey or light and airy, this recipe has you covered. So next time you are craving something sweet, reach for this low-fat chocolate pudding instead of a high-calorie, store-bought dessert.
