Ingredients:

• 250g beetroot, cooked and pureed

To start, preheat your oven to 180°C. In a saucepan, melt the butter and dark chocolate over low heat until smooth. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the sugar and eggs until light and fluffy. Gradually add the melted chocolate mixture, beetroot puree, plain flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Mix until well combined.

Grease and line a cake tin, then pour the batter into the tin. Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until a skewer inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow the cake to cool in the tin before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.

Once cooled, slice the cake and serve. This beetroot and chocolate cake is perfect for any occasion and is sure to impress your friends and family with its rich flavor and moist texture.
