Chocolate Cake Celebration
Serves 8

Ingredients
2 c. reduced-fat chocolate cake mix
3 medium whole oranges
1 pint fresh raspberries
2 tsp. Grand Marnier liqueur (you may substitute 2 tsp. orange juice)

Preparation

  • Prepare the reduced-fat cake mix according to the package directions. Bake one layer in an 8 x 8-inch square pan. Allow the cake to cool, then cut it into 8 equal pieces.
  • Peel the oranges and separate the segments of the orange. Using a small paring knife, remove the white membrane. Discard the seeds. Set the segments aside.
  • Rinse the fresh raspberries under cool water and allow them to dry on a paper towel. (If using frozen raspberries, thaw them slightly, setting them on paper towels to absorb the liquid.)
  • Using a clean pastry brush, “paint” 2 tsp. of Grand Marnier (or orange juice) over the cake slices, allowing the cake to absorb the liquid.
  • Garnish each cake slice with 4 orange segments and 3 raspberries and serve.
