Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven 350 degrees:

Butter two – 8x8 baking pans and set aside.

In a large bowl combine the sugar, cocoa, all-purpose flour and baking powder.

In another large bowl, beat the eggs. Slowly stir in the applesauce, yogurt and vanilla. Add the egg mixture to the flour mixture and beat with an electric mixer. Fold in the nuts and chocolate chips.

Pour batter into the prepared pans and bake for about 30 minutes or until the batter just begins to pull away from the sides of the pan.

Let cool and then sprinkle with powdered sugar.
