Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

2 cups cooked or canned chickpeas -- drained

1/3 cup orange juice

4 large eggs -- room temperature

1 cup light brown sugar

1/4 cup cocoa

1/2 teaspoon baking powder

1/4 teaspoon baking soda

Cooking spray or oil

 

A chocolate adaptation of a clever flourless cake concocted by Sally and

Martin Stone, co-authors of Desserts with a Difference.

 

1. Preheat oven to 350F. Lightly spray or oil an 8-inch round cake pan

and line bottom with a circle of waxed paper.

 

2. In a food processor, process chickpeas and orange juice until very

smooth. Add eggs, one at a time, pulsing after each addition. Add sugar,

cocoa, baking powder, and baking soda and process until well-blended,

stopping to scrape down the sides of the bowl as necessary.

 

3. Pour batter into prepared pan and bake for 50 minutes, or until a

toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Remove cake from oven

and let cool on a rack for 15 minutes before removing from pan. Serve warm

or at room temperature.

 

Ovo. Makes 8 servings.
