Yes Virginia, there is a low sugar healthy guiltless chocolate cake

My sister helped me find the recipes for a chocolate cake that uses canola oil and agave syrup - the "natural" sugar that doesn't cause a spike in insulin, as well as a very rich chocolate icing that also uses agave. We served these up to my Mom and Aunt on Saturday; they are usually suspicious of what healthy alternative tricks we have pulled on them in our cooking; we joke that they don't eat anything unless it has at LEAST a stick of butter in it.  We held our breaths; and wham-o, they gobbled this up!!!! 

I had some strawberries at the ready, and they added nicely to the deep chocolate taste of the cake.
