Recipe Notes
Go ahead and use whatever flour you like!
This recipe uses applesauce for moisture, binding and fluffiness. It is super easy to make your own applesauce! If you do not have any applesauce or apples, just replace the applesauce with a massed overripe banana.
A cup of green tea with dehydrated orange or blood orange slices with passionate citrus notes paired with a piece of this chocolate cake is the perfect tea and dessert pairing example. The delicious orange flavor of this tea makes it an ideal pair for the chocolate cake.
If you are a coffee lover you need a piece of this chocolate cake! Chocolate and coffee are an enduring flavor pairing.
