I have an appreciation for great cake due to Carrie’s talents, so when we try a new recipe that is super yummy and makes me want to share here, you know it must be good. This cake is one of those recipes!

A family friend brought us quiche and a version of this chocolate cake, and it was the first time since our babe was born that we sat down at the table and had a meal together. Does it matter that we started with the cake? (To be fair the quiche was in the oven warming up).

This cake has a secret though – a surprising one. No flour, but that is not a big deal. There are lots of flourless, fudgy chocolate cakes. Chickpeas! A can of drained and rinsed chickpeas pureed. Who would have thought – delicious and healthy.

The one in the picture above we made last night for a dinner with friends. We used a recipe found online, but it wasn’t as good as the one Susie brought over (it was dry so we compensated with some whipped cream). I’ve asked her for the recipe and will update this post once I get it. Then you can go make this cake! Wouldn’t a raspberry sauce be great on top?
