Chocolate and Wine can solve everything, I tell you. I have been wanting to eat a chocolate cake for long. I got one from Whole Foods and it wasn’t enough. So, I made another one.
I made this exceptionally rich, moist, egg free and butter free double chocolate cake to cure any chocolate cravings. I replaced the eggs and butter by oil and water, resulting in a cholesterol-free cake that tastes just like any decadent cake from a bakery. Talk about love at first bite!
For the frosting, I used powdered sugar, Nutella and some more chocolate. Heaven.
Its not that, I experimented with eggfree desserts the first time. I have been making my cakes egg free for a long time now like these Chocolate-Banana Muffins, How to make Gluten-Free Chocolate Banana Muffins or, Egg-Free Butter-Free Dark Chocolate Bundt Cake
This ultra-rich double chocolate cake gets an extra dose of deliciousness from the addition of coffee. The best part is you don’t need any fancy equipment to make this cake. You can mix them all, pour and bake.
So, coming back to the latest in my life, these last couple of weeks have been very interesting. Things happened – some good, some bad, some unforgettable stuff. As I grow older, I develop a certain perspective towards things. I have learnt to discard the bad memories as lesson learned and good memories as memories to be cherished forever.
I have also been binge watching Grey’s Anatomy. Cant believe, how come I stayed away from this sitcom for such a long long time. There are some new developments on the work front as well. I will keep you all updated as things to take shape.
But above all, I have not let my faith to sink. Yes, there have been moments of despair but those don’t last long. As long as I make sure that, I keep the faith, hope and trust up.., rest will automatically fall into shape.
And if they don’t.., there is always wine and chocolate.

Delicious!!!
You say that you replace the eggs and butter in the recipe with oil and water. Actually, this chocolate cake recipe is an old classic. The vinegar and baking soda help the cake rise, in place of eggs.
UM. YUM!! This looks so amazing and delicious!
Thank you! And yes, I have been baking my cakes with no eggs for years now. 🙂
Thank you!

I just had to repeat that twice in my mind, it sounds so wonderful. Sweet dishes have never been my thing but I love the looks of your cake. Interesting that your bundt is eggless, that would please some people here.
I have never seen nutella used as icing, this is brilliant! Love the pics too, seriously!

I don’t have quite 3 Tablespoons of Nutella for the frosting. Can I melt some chocolate chips to make a full 3 T?
