Drain and rinse beans in a strainer or colander.If you’d like to bake the batter as cupcakes, line 16 cupcake tins with paper liners. Cut a round of parchment paper and line the bottom of the pan, then grease the parchment lightly.Dust cocoa all over the inside of the pan, tapping to evenly distribute.Spray a 9″ cake pan with extra virgin olive oil cooking spray, or just grease it with a thin layer of butter.Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (163 degrees Celsius).That gives you no excuse to not try it, ya hear? The best part about this cake is that it’s totally budget-friendly. The frosting gets its rich dark coloring from Hershey’s Special Dark cocoa powder.
Just double the recipe to make a whole 2 layer cake. Note: I cut 1 single layer in half, width-wise, and stacked the semicircular halves on top of one another to achieve the 2 layer cake shown here. Served with a cold glass of almond milk, it was all the more refreshing after a day spent soaking up the Carolina sun. Safe to say they agreed with me, and hungrily polished off the slices I provided for them. I haven’t have a flour- and sugar-based chocolate cake in a very long time, so my roommates had to confirm this cake’s rockstar status.
Beans, seriously!Įven if you’re the fiercest of bean haters (like I am), you’ll fall head over heels for this moist chocolate cake. Why was this particular culinary journey so nerve-wracking?
It’s always a rollercoaster of emotion… this time, with a very sweet ending. You know those feelings that come over you when you play around a bit with a recipe, adding a pinch of this and a tablespoon of that? The nervousness as you put the batter in the oven, the fiddling around with the baking time, the checking and rechecking for doneness? The anticipation as you’re cutting the cake, hoping upon hope that’s it’s not too dry, too mushy, too crumbly? So good, in fact, that I had to have a mug of stevia-sweetened pomegranate tea and go to bed, so I’d stop shaving off “test” slices. Cake made out of a surprise ingredient, one that will make you wrinkle you’re nose upon hearing it. Chocolate cake made without flour, sugar, or dairy.
