And I do like the additional depth of colour that beetroot brings to a chocolate cake. I haven't actually baked with them this year, which is a little remiss of me as I've got loads of beetroot down at the plot which I can't seem to keep up with.Choclettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00173996730095174268noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6742756814967464811.post-27385624900611152192011-08-27T02:09:17.652+10:002011-08-27T02:09:17.652+10:00They look so fudgy!
