Okay, this looks delicious and easy so I wrote it down including metric conversions:
Chocolate Beet Cake from 1966
- 15oz (425g) can of pickled beets
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 1 + 1/2 cups sugar
- vanilla
- 3 eggs
- 2 cups plain flour
- 1/3 cup cocoa
- pinch salt
- 1 teaspoon baking soda (bicarb soda)
Blend the can of pickled beets, including the juice.
Whisk the oil, sugar, vanilla and eggs together vigorously.
Add the blended beets.
Add the flour, cocoa, salt and baking soda (bicarb soda) to wet ingredients.
Place in a bundt tin and bake at 375°F (190°C) for 50 minutes.
Ganache:
1/2 a cup cream
4oz (113g) chocolate (dark?)
Melt cream and chocolate together over very low heat, just until the chocolate melts and everything is smooth. Spread over the cake.
