Healthy Chocolate Decadence Cake With Simple Raspberry Coulis
I was reminiscing with some of my cooking school colleagues about this incredible cake from Robert Dean, the "Dean of Lean". You have to taste it to believe it. If you're trying to keep your holidays healthy, you owe it to yourself to try it. And yes, the garbanzo beans in the ingredient list are correct- but you'll never be aware of them in the finished cake! For the raspberry coulis, just puree a bag of frozen raspberries and sweeten them with a bit of sugar if desired. Just click read more for the recipe and let me know what you think. Happy Holidays!
