2 Egg whites

1/4 teaspoon Vanilla extract

To make the brownie, in a large mixing bowl whisk together the wheat gluten, cocoa powder, soy powder, sugar, Splenda or stevia, and baking powder. In a small bowl, stir together the applesauce, buttermilk, egg whites an vanilla extract. Stir the liquid ingredients into the dry and mix just until blended. 4. Pour the brownie mixture into the pan and top with the cheesecake mixture. Using a knife, carve "S" shapes into the mixture to marbleize the top.
