moist & delicious chocolate Avocado Cake

Written By Christine Davis Ross

INGREDIENTS​

  • 1/2 cup mashed avocado

  • 3/4 cup water

  • 1 cup organic unbleached flour

  • 1/2 cup cacao powder

  • 1/2 cup organic raw sugar, or coconut sugar

  • 1 tsp baking soda

  • 1/2 tsp salt

  • 1 cup vegan dark chocolate chips

Follow these steps for a deliciously moist cake:

  1. Oven Preparation:

    • Begin by preheating your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. This is the sweet spot for baking brownies.

  1. Prepare Baking Dish:

    • Lightly oil an 8-inch square baking dish. This will prevent sticking and make serving your cake a breeze.

  1. Blend Avocado and Water:

    • Place avocado and water into a blender. Blitz on high until the mixture is perfectly smooth. This avocado base is what makes this cake so wonderfully moist and rich.

  1. Mix Dry Ingredients:

    • To your avocado blend, add flour, cacao powder, sugar, baking soda, and a pinch of salt. Blend again until the mixture becomes smooth and all ingredients are fully incorporated. This is where the magic starts to happen!

  1. Add Chocolate Chips:

    • Gently stir in the chocolate chips. These little pockets of chocolate will add an extra layer of indulgence to your cake.

  1. Bake the cake:

    • Spread the batter evenly into your prepared baking dish. Slide it into the oven and bake for 17-19 minutes. Keep an eye on them – they should be baked through but still moist.

  1. Cooling Time:

    • Patience is key! Allow the brownies to cool in the dish for at least 20 minutes. This cooling period helps them set and enhances their flavor.

  1. The Final Touch:

    • Add a sprinkle of love, cut into squares, and enjoy your delightful avocado cake!

Remember:

  • Avocado in brownies might sound adventurous, but it's all about the smooth, rich texture and depth of flavor it adds.

  • Enjoy the process and savor every bite of these unique treats!
