Chocolate-Mint Cake - Coconut Flour

Bad weather seems to be directly linked to my appetite for all things sweet and chocolatey. Raining? Chocolate cupcakes. Snowing? Warm Chocolate anything. I swear, I am completely helpless. Right now, we are experiencing heavy rainfalls. The day is grey and sopping wet. I like to stay in and just chill out on days like this with indulgent goodies and either a good read or a movie. I am currently reading The Edible Woman ( how fitting) by Margaret Atwood. My mini convection oven is baking a new creation consisting of coconut flour, mint and chocolate. All the things I love! Okay, here's the recipe:

Chocolate-Mint Cake/Cupcake Recipe

1/2 Coconut Flour

3 Eggs

1/3 Cup of Milk

3 Tablespoon Brown Sugar

3 HEAPING Tablespoon of Coco 

1/4 Tablespoon of Baking Soda

1/4 Tablespoon of Cinnamon 

1/2 Teaspoon of Peppermint Extract **

I did not have Mint extract in the house so I subbed it with brewed mint tea (steeping it for a few minutes in 1/5 cup of hot water) , let it cool before adding to batter. 

Mix all dry ingredients then add the wet ingredients. Bake for 20 minutes at 375 degrees. Eat! 

--> if the batter is too wet, then the consistency of the cake will be very soft - closer to a chocolate mousse. Presentation may look off but it is still damn tasty! To remedy this, jus reduce the liquids or add more flour. 

The End
