Recipe Notes
Assuming that you already have the flours, replacement sugar, Hershey's Cocoa, baking ingredients like salt and baking powder, then the estimated cost for this recipe is approximately $4.00. However, the cost will be about $30 or more if you are starting out with baking recipes with lower carbs and sugar.
Calories are estimated.
Leave out the butter if you're counting Weight Watchers points. Without the butter, the points are minimal for a slice.
Butter substitution ideas:
Instead of the butter, use light mayonnaise, perhaps 1/2 cup, and combine with the liquid mixture to pour over the dry mixture. Or if you want the flavor of butter, spray the pan with a butter spray before baking instead of melting the butter in the oven. Then melt two tablespoons butter (instead of the recipe's 1/4 cup amount) and mix with the liquid mixture.
