Guilt-free chocolate fudge cake
<p>Everyone needs a bit of sweetness now and then, but sometimes taste can come at the cost of our health. This sinfully delicious chocolate cake is actually a lot more heavenly than it tastes, with less sugar, fat and calories than other cakes yet still fantastically fudgy thanks to an unlikely ingredient – tofu! Just don’t knock it till you try it.</p>
