Dark Chocolate Kale Cake

Shhhhhh… it’s a secret. Here’s a sneaky yet delicious way to get those extra greens in! Kale adds great moisture to this cake and no one but you will know it’s in there.

Yield: 8 Servings

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

Whisk together the flours, cocoa powder, and salt and set aside.

In a blender, mix together the eggs, chopped kale, and sugar until well blended. Add the vanilla and oil. Combine together with the dry ingredients and mix well.

Pour the batter into a buttered and floured 9-inch tart pan (the type where the bottom is detached from the sides) and bake for 10 minutes. Remove from oven, cover the top with chopped chocolate. Turn off the oven and put the cake back in for a few minutes until the chocolate is melted.

Remove from oven and spread the melted chocolate all over the top. Sprinkle with sea salt as desired and let cool. For added decadence, top with freshly whipped cream, raspberries, and slivered almonds just before serving.
