A delectible chocolate LOW FAT date nut cake...just like my Mom used to make but without the fat and calories..you're gonna love this one.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Prepare 2 cupcake pans. You can line them with paper or spray with non stick cooking spray.
Chop dates into small pieces while you bring your water to a boil, add 1 cup of boiling water to the chopped dates. Add to the dates 1 teaspoon of baking soda and stir well. Set aside.
Add your flour, cocoa and salt to a bowl and stirwell. Set aside.
In your Kitchenaid add your margarine, raw sugar, & Splenda. Mix well. Add egg whites, one at a time. Beat for several minutes.
Add your soaking dates to your sugar mixture, along with all of the liquid.
Add remaining wet ingredients. Mix well.
Add your flour mixture to wet mixture and mix well but do not over beat! (this will make for a tough batter)
Pour your cake mixture into a pourable container and fill your cupcakes 3/4 full.
To the top of your cakes you will add a bit of chopped pecans and a few mini chocolate chips.
Bake for 18 to 20 minutes.
Bon Appetit!
