CAPPUCCINO CAKE

1/3 cup semisweet or milk chocolate chips
1/3 cup chopped hazelnuts, pecans or walnuts
1 (18.25 ounce) box yellow cake mix
2 teaspoons cinnamon
1 1/4 cups water
1 large egg
1/2 cup egg substitute
1/3 cup double-strength coffee or espresso, cooled (can use decaf)
2 tablespoons instant coffee powder, espresso roast (can use decaf)
Garnish: powdered sugar and ground cinnamon (optional)

Preheat
oven to 325 degrees F. Coat 10-inch (12-cup) Bundt or tube pan with
canola cooking spray or canola oil and sprinkle lightly with flour.
Sprinkle chocolate chips and nuts evenly into bottom of prepared pan.
In large mixing bowl, combine cake mix and cinnamon. Add water, egg,
egg substitute, and cooled coffee. Beat with electric mixer at low
speed until dry ingredients are moistened. Beat at medium speed 2
minutes. Stir in instant coffee powder gently to make a swirl effect.
Pour batter over topping in pan. Bake 35 to 45 minutes or until a
wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool on wire rack 15
minutes. Remove from pan. Place cake, fluted side up, on serving plate.
Cool completely. Dust with powdered sugar and additional ground
cinnamon if desired.

NOTE: You can make 24 cappuccino cupcakes
instead; just use 2 muffins pans in place of the Bundt pan and bake
about 15 to 20 minutes instead of 35 to 45 minutes.
