I couldn’t believe the results of this chocolate cake (or cupcakes as you can see in the photo)! I’d heard about “magic bean” cake before but this was my first go – and I actually was quite impressed! I scoured the internet and brought together a couple of recipes – for a bit of an adult twist, you can also add a shot of coffee. They’re fantastic for a gluten & dairy-free options. I used raw sugar, but you could try honey for an even better-for-you option. Give these a go, you’ll be surprised!
Grab your eggs, honey & kidney beans from Charlie’s!
