“My mom used to make a recipe like this when I was younger. I decided to make some healthy changes, and this version is as good, if not better than the original. Being a dietitian, I love to come up with ways to lighten up recipes. I would bake all the time if I could!” Jackie Termont - Elkhart, Indiana

I made it last night, using apple sauce, splenda/brown sugar, and gluten-free flour. The taste was too sweet for me, and it was very grainy, though I liked the "chocolateness".

Tasted good for being low-fat. I needed a big scoop of vanilla ice cream on top, though. ;o) The prunes have a bit of a distinct taste. I would try it with applesauce next time.

Excellent. Similar to others have made. I use applesauce instead of the prunes. Let my kids make it as it was so easy. Of course serving with ice cream adds calories.

I was looking forward to a nice soft creamy cake with a chocolate topping but instead the cake was very hard and the topping was dried.

This is one of the best cakes that we've had. The pudding texture on the bottom is yummy. Used applesauce instead of prunes.

I used the prunes and it sure did taste fruity. I thought maybe with applesauce or regular oil maybe better, but the texture was strange. With all the cocoa in it, it oddly enough didn't taste like chocolate. We threw it out.

I have several Pudding Cake recipes... One from a daughter who just mixes the cake right in the pan. Puts on the topping and pours the water over it.... Easy and no mess to clean up! It works with this one, also...
