I have been using vegetables in my cake recipes for a few years now, especially to reduce the fat as well as the sugar content. In this recipe, I have used cooked beets (pureed) and a chocolate mixture without butter. It’s delicious, moist, fluffy, rich in chocolate and you can’t taste the beet. So if you liked my Chocolate zucchini cake with no butter or sugar, or my sweet potato brownies, or my chickpea chocolate chip cookies and my vegan chocolate mousse with aquafaba, then you should have a go at this one 🙂
