• 1 12 cups unbleached white flour
• 13 cup cocoa powder
• 12 teaspoon baking soda
• 12 teaspoon salt
• 12 cup Splenda sugar substitute
• 12 cup fructose
• 14 cup applesauce
• 14 cup oil
• 1 cup brewed coffee, chilled
• 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
• 2 tablespoons cider vinegar
• 2 ounces unsweetened chocolate
• 14 cup natural-style peanut butter
• 3 tablespoons water (plus a little more if needed)
• 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
• 12 cup fructose, powdered (run through a spice mill)
• 12 cup Splenda sugar substitute

1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.

4. In another bowl, combine the applesauce, oil, coffee, and vanilla.
