beet cake from tiger in a jar on Vimeo.
I saw this video here, and wanted to try sharing it via the blog. I'm also going to make it for the missionaries (and us!) this week, as we have beets ready in our garden. Ian said he didn't want to try it when I asked him, but after watching the video, he said he'd like it. Power in advertising! He said it was ready when the flower was on top : )It was amazing to me that the cook didn't sample the chocolate! Let me know if you try it. I put my changes in brackets. I tested in on our family, the missionaries who came for dinner, and my book group. Everyone liked it!
2 c. beets [I didn't have quite enough, so filled in with applesauce]
2 c. flour
1 1/2 c. dark brown sugar
4 oz. semi-sweet chocolate, melted [Ian ate some of my measured chips—before melting—so I added a couple tablespoons of cocoa to make sure we had adequate chocolate!]
2 t. baking soda
1/4 t. salt
1 t. vanilla
1 c. butter
3 eggs
Bake at 375 degrees. [I used two 9"(?) cake rounds, and baked about 30 min.] Sprinkle with powdered sugar.
