This easy-to-make chocolate cake is perfectly diabetic-friendly and very delicious. A wonderful treat for the whole family!
Step 1 Cook the beetroot: Preheat oven to 430 F. Trim and wash the beets and wrap in foil. Roast beets for 45 minutes. Then partially unwrap them and poke with a fork. If the beets are tender, they are ready. Now let them cool, then peel the beets and grind in a blender. Step 2 Add tofu, vanilla extract, sweetener, and baking powder. Mix in a food processor with a dough attachment. Step 3 Melt the chocolate in a water bath (without stirring). And carefully add to the dough. Step 4 Cover a 10” baking dish with baking paper. Do not grease. Step 5 Preheat oven to 355 F. Pour the dough into the baking dish and bake for half an hour. The cake should look semi-cooked and soft. Step 6 Cool the cake. Then remove it from the baking dish, put on a plate, and refrigerate. Step 7 Remove the cake from the fridge right before serving. Cut, serve, and enjoy!
