  • 4 eggs
  • 300g peeled and cooked beetroot
  • 1 tsp NoMU Vanilla Extract
  • 120g NoMU Hot Chocolate Chunks

Chocolate Beetroot Cake


Preheat your oven to 180°C and grease and line a 25cm cake tin. Sift the NoMU Drinking Chocolate, flour and sugar in a bowl. Beat the eggs in a separate bowl. Process the cooked beetroot in a food processor, then mix into the beaten eggs. Add the NoMU vanilla extract.  

Melt the NoMU Hot Chocolate and butter together over a low heat until smooth and add to the flour mix along with the beetroot mix. Mix well, then pour into the cake tin and bake for 55-60 minutes or until an inserted skewer comes out clean. Allow to cool before icing. 

To make the icing: Soften the butter, then add the cream cheese and NoMU Vanilla Extract. Sift in the icing sugar and beat until creamy and smooth. Once the cake has cooled cut it into 2 layers and ice with the cream cheese frosting.
