Luscious Low Fat Chocolate Pound Cake

"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."

  1. This cake has no taste. It isn't sweet nor does it taste like chololate. Kind of like sawdust. My husband, who will eat any cake any time even didn't like it.
     
  2. For a lighter , low fat cake, this is good! Not overly sweet , would go great with fresh coffee or tea. Mixed up quickly and easily, the only thing that wasn't "correct" for me was the time to bake. I still had raw dough around one side of it after 25 minutes, so I set the timer for another 15 ... but ended up taking it out at approx. 40 minutes total cooking time. Just used a sprinkle of powdered sugar to top it off. Made in memory of Chef-I-Am.
