1 3/4 cup all purpose flour
1 cup granulated sugar
3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 1/2 tsp baking soda
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp salt
1 1/2 cup buttermilk
1 cup light brown sugar, packed

1/4 cup canola oil
2 tsp vanilla extract
1 cup hot, strong black coffee
ICING
1 cup confectioner's sugar
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
2 tbsp buttermilk
Directions
CAKE: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly oil a 12-cup Bundt pan or
coat it with non-stick cooking spray. Dust the pan with flour,
shaking out excess. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together flour,
granulated sugar, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder and salt.
Add buttermilk, brown sugar, eggs, oil and vanilla. Beat with an
electric mixer on medium speed for 2 minutes. Whisk in hot coffee
until completely incorporated. The batter will be quite thin. Pour
the batter into the prepared pan. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes, or until
cake tester inserted in center comes out clean. Cool the cake for 10
minutes. Remove from pan and let cool completely on rack. ICING: In a
small bowl, whisk together confectioner's sugar, vanilla and enough
of the buttermilk to make a thick but pourable icing. Set the cake on
a serving platter and drizzle the icing over the top.

Weight loss systemsThe Glycaemic Index Diet The glycaemic index nutrition system is based around the gi (or glycaemic index), a list of food types and a score illustrating the speed with which the carbs in the food type gets changed to sugar in your system. The believe is that long-acting foods (ie those foods with a low Glycaemic score), keep you satisfied for a longer period of time and help you to cut down on food without starving yourself. It's also extremely useful for diabetics, as the low GI food types are useful in reducing surges in blood sugar secretion. The Atkins’ Diet First invented by doctor atkins in the 1960s, the famous atkins diet has been one of the most popular weight loss systems over the last few years. Although not accepted by all scientists, it allows weight loss whilst encouraging you to eat many foods that are not normally available to dieters, eg meat and eggs. With the atkins diet it is considered good to eat fat and protein, it is carbohydrates that need to be avoided. It is often referred to as a high protein, low carb, nutrition and weight loss system. With this diet, the foods you should avoid are processed and refined sugar, milk, white bread, starchy vegetables, white rice and white flour, including cereals and pasta made from white flour. Unlike other diets, with the atkins diet the foods you are encouraged to eat are nutrient-rich unprocessed foods such as meat, fish and poultry. You also can eat shellfish, regular full fat cheese, butter and, as a consequence, olive oil. The Atkins’ Diet Theory The 'science' behind the famous atkins diet is that if we eat less carbohydrates, our bodies will use up our stored fat and we will lose weight The South Beach Diet The South Beach diet is a weight loss system created by Dr. arthur agatston, a cardiologist from miami, usa, which encourages that one should consume "good carbohydrates" instead of "bad carbs" and "good fats" instead of "bad fats" Agatston invented his system as an aid to patients with heart conditions, as a result of his detailed study of scientific data on other nutritional studies. Good foods include, lean beef, skinless poultry, shellfish, feta cheese, pistachios, lowfat milk and certain vegetables, like butter beans, eggplant and mushrooms. |
