A rich chocolate cake made with creamy avocado and dark cocoa powder!
Recipe type: Dessert
Serves: 12
Ingredients
  • 3 eggs
  • 2¼ cups all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup dark cocoa powder
  • 1½ tsp. baking soda
  • ¼ tsp. salt
  • ½ ripe avocado
  • 1¾ cup cane sugar
  • 1 tsp. vanilla
  • 1⅓ cups cold water
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Grease and lightly flour two 9 inch cake pans and set aside. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. Set dry ingredients to the side for later.
  2. In a large mixing bowl beat ripe avocado with an electric mixer until creamy. Add sugar and vanilla; beat until combined completely. Add eggs one at a time, beating thoroughly after each egg is added. Alternate adding the dry ingredients and the water into the avocado mixture, beating on low speed after each addition just until combined. Pour batter evenly into two 9 inch cake pans.
  3. Bake in 350 degree oven for 35-30 minutes or until a cake tester comes out clean. Cool on racks for 10 minutes. Remove from pans. Cool completely on wire rack.
  4. Frost when cakes are completely cooled and garnish as desired.
