    Valentine cake! I could taste the beet but wasn’t disagreeable. I didn’t double the recipe but split in two to make one round + one square, cut round in half to make the heart shape. I should have remembered to double the icing! But it turned out cute and the perfect color for Feb 14!

    Really good! Only made this because I had to use up a precooked beet, which I shredded and used instead of the fresh. The poppy seed added a subtle crunch. Also the beets weren’t detectable and my toddler ate the cake, too. I omitted the frosting and reduced the sugar, was sweet enough that way!

    Moist, dense chocolate cake. No taste of beets. Good for 1-2 days. Would like to add photo but don't see how.
