Cherry ripe coconut fudge cake

Every once in a while, I come across a recipe on a blog that I know I must try. And must try soon.

Heidi’s recipe for a cherry ripe coconut fudge cake was one such recipe.

So as soon as I had an occasion to share a baked treat (which was a family dinner we hosted over the weekend), I knew this cake had to make an appearance.

And boy was a delightful cake it turned out to be.

There were so many things I loved about this cake.

I loved that it used coconut flour, making it gluten fee.

I loved that it favoured honey as a sweetener, instead of sugar, making the flavour of the bitter dark chocolate shine through.

I loved that the ‘icing’ was made with greek yoghurt – something I would never have thought of using.

And I loved how the cherry jam added just the right amount of fruity sweetness.

My only comment is that this cake is rich in fudgey goodness So rich, in fact, that you will only need a small slice to satisfy even the strongest of chocolate cravings.

A delightful end to a lovely dinner party indeed.

What about you? Have you ever cooked with coconut flour?
