eheat the oven to 350F. Spray a 9 x 13" baking pan with cooking oil and set aside.

In a large bowl, whisk together the cocoa and baking soda. Blend in the oil, and mix until smooth. Pour in the boiling water, stirring until the mixture thickens. Stir in the applesauce, the sugar, and the egg whites. Mix until smooth.

Add the flour and the vanilla. Blend completely - there should be no lumps. Pour into the prepared baking pan. Spread the batter evenly to avoid crispy edges.

    It definately did not taste like a brownie but more like a cake. I thought it was okay but none of my family would eat it - 2/17/09
