Oh-em-gee girlies I’ve got something for you that is so super yummy! If you crave for something sweet then this chocolate fudge cake goodness is your next stop. I absolutely LOVE healthy cakes, it’s my all-time favorite snack. You can make lots of variations, but we’ve got a totally winning cake here!
I’ve noticed that you girls can appreciate some healthy cakes as well, because the one from my book is made A LOT 😉 I make healthy cakes and breads pretty often and always make sure to have a little stock in my freezer. If you cut the cake, then pack the slices separately and store in the freezer. This way you can easily grab a slice for on the go. It stays good up to 3 months, but they NEVER last as long with me haha! Take it out the freezer in the morning to enjoy in the afternoon.
“The secret ingredient is always chocolate!”
This chocolate fudge cake (only 98 kcal per slice!) is extra special because it has a topping! So double the chocolate fun – can it get any better? Enough said right, so wait no longer and start baking baby!
With love,
Carolina.

Hi Carolina,
De cake zit er heerlijk uit en ik wil me graag maken! Kun je het speltmeel ook vervangen door kokosmeel bijv? Ik heb zowel kokos- als amandelmeel in huis, maar geen speltmeel… en vind het zonde om nieuw aan te schaffen!!
Groetjes,
Fleur

Ah ja dat wil ik altijd graag weten, kan het niet altijd zien in de receptjes dus mijn porties zijn altijd te groot en dan kloppen de voedingswaarden niet meer
