Notes about this recipe

    Made in a 9 inch round pan with some changes based on what i had. The recipe is adaptable! Used sour cream instead of yogurt and sliced strawberries instead of raspberries. Had no cocoa nibs or chips. Baked the whole 50 minutes as i was worried about it being too wet. I could have done 45 mintes though, it was a little dry around the edges and reminiscent of a brownie. Deep chocolate flavor with hints of olive oil and pops of strawberry. We both really liked this!

    Made a half recipe and baked it for 26 minutes in my tiered heart bundt. M felt the olive oil taste was too strong. That didn't bother me but I would have liked a more robust chocolate flavor. Maybe try a more neutral oil. Glazed with the fresh raspberry glaze.

    Made this for Halloween in a 5 cup capacity mini skull pan by Nordic Ware without any problems. I reduced the sugar to 160g. Sweet enough for me and I really liked the cocoa nibs.

    Delicious, interesting cake. Nicely dark and not-too-sweet, with a nice texture and flavor combination. Like all of the cakes in this great cookbook, very easy to throw together quickly, with very pleasing results.
