Fudge Brownie Cake:
In this lightened-up version of sense chocolate cake, traditional butter and sugar are replaced by coconut oil and coconut sugar with no detraction to the wonderfully rich and fudgy texture. Cut into wedges and eat them with your hands like a brownie, or serve plated with a scoop of froze yogurt alongside.
