Chocolate Beet Cake

Why I Love This Recipe

When thinking about vegetables in season, we started to talk about beets because magic scissors brought the letter B. Gus helped talk the other Rainbows into trying Beets in a cake. They all seemed to love it! The beets give the cake a nice moist texture.

The original recipe called for coconut to be spread on the bottom of the pan before the batter is put in. This would make a delicious addition to the cake.
