I have not made this one personally because I am not a diabetic and find
recipes like this for my step father who is. I dont see how a cake can be made
with out flour so purhaps I will have to try it.

Flourless Chocolate Cake
12 servings/Serving size: 1 slice
6 Tbsp margarine
10&3/4 tsp Equal® for Recipes or 36 packets Equal® sweetener or
1&1/2 cups Equal® SpoonfulT
4 oz unsweetened chocolate
1/3 cup skim milk
1/3 cup apricot preserves with NutraSweet® brand sweetener or
apricot spreadable fruit
3 egg whites
1/8 tsp cream of tartar
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
2 tsp instant espresso coffee crystals
1/8 tsp salt
1 egg yolk
Rich Chocolate Glaze (optional, see recipe below)
1 tsp vanilla
Heat margarine, chocolate, milk, apricot preserves, and espresso crystals in
small saucepan, whisking frequently, until
chocolate is almost melted.
Remove pan from heat; continue whisking until chocolate is melted and mixture
is smooth. Whisk in egg yolk and vanilla; add Equal®, whisking until smooth.
Beat egg whites and cream of tartar to stiff peaks in large bowl. Fold
chocolate mixture into egg whites; fold in combined
flour and salt.
Lightly grease bottom of 9-inch round cake pan and line with parchment or
baking paper. Pour cake batter into pan. Bake in preheated 350-degree oven
until cake is just firm when lightly touched, 18 to 20 minutes, and toothpick
comes out clean
(do not over bake). Carefully loosen side of cake from pan with small sharp
knife, which will keep cake from cracking as it
cools.
Cool cake completely in pan on wire rack; refrigerate until chilled, 1 to 2
hours.
Remove cake from pan and place on serving plate. Spread with Rich Chocolate
Glaze, if desired. Garnish with light whipped topping, chocolate drizzle,
and/or raspberries, if desired.
