Chocolate Blueberry Cake: (makes an 8x8 cake)
- 1 cup whole wheat flour
- 1 cup sugar
- 6 Tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 3/4 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 3/4 cup water
- 1 egg
- 1/2 cup blueberries, fresh or frozen
Add liquid mixture to flour mixture. Beat with mixer, scraping sides of bowl occasionally. Pour into greased 8x8 square pan. Bake for 30 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.
Ganache:
- 1 cup reduced fat whipped topping, like Cool Whip lite
- 1/2 cup semi sweet chocolate chips
Blueberry Sauce:
- 1/2 cup blueberries
- 1/2 cup reduced fat whipped topping
Helpful Hints:
* In place of the Cool Whip Lite topping I used Whipping Cream. This adds quite a few calories but I try to avoid high fructose corn syrup where I can. I whipped it up with beaters and then added it where the recipe calls for the whipped topping.
* I would wait until ready to serve to add the blueberry sauce.
