Ingredients

Servings
4
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 0.8 cup Dutch process cocoa
  • 0.3 cup cornstarch
  • 0.3 tsp salt
  • 2 cup skim milk
  • 2 squares semisweet chocolate coarsely chopped, 1-ounce
  • 3 tbsp stick margarine
  • 1 0.5 cup frozen reduced-calorie whipped topping, thawed
  • 23 ladyfingers
  • 0.3 cup Grand Marnier or other orange flavored liquer
  • 1 tbsp powdered sugar

Instructions

  1. 1

    Orange slices (optional) Combine the first 4 ingredients in a large saucepan. Gradually add skim milk, stirring with a wire whisk until blended. Add the chopped chocolate; bring to a boil over medium heat, and cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly. Add the margarine, and cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly. Remove from heat. Place pan in a large ice-filled bowl for 10 minutes or until the chocolate mixture cools to room temperature, stirring occasionally. Remove pan from ice. Spoon 1/2 cup chocolate mixture into a small bowl, and gently fold in whipped topping. Cover and chill chocolate-whipped topping mixture. Set aside the remain- ing chocolate mixture. Line a 9 x 5-inch loaf pan with heavy-duty plastic wrap, allowing wrap to extend over edge of pan. Split ladyfingers in half lengthwise. Arrange 9 ladyfinger halves lengthwise in 3 rows, rounded side down, in a single layer in bottom of pan. Brush 1 tablespoon Grand Mar- nier over ladyfingers in pan. Spread about 1/2 cup chocolate mixture over the ladyfinger layer. Repeat procedure 3 more times with the remaining ladyfingers, Grand Marnier, and chocolate mixture, ending with ladyfingers (1 lady finger half will be left over). Cover; chill for at least 8 hours. Uncover and invert the pan onto a serving platter; remove the plastic wrap. Sprinkle with powdered sugar. Yield: 9 servings (serving size: 1 slice of cake and 3 tablespoons topping). ----- Notes: Dutch process cocoa has less acidity than regular cocoa, and it gives the pudding mixture a smoother chocolate flavor. Serve cake with chocolate-whipped topping mixture. Serving Ideas: Garnish each serving with an orange slice, if desired.
