Extremely Moist Chocolate and Beetroot Cake

Having a glut of rather large beetroot ... I flicked through various cookery books and stumbled on this recipe in Nigel Slater's Tender.  Having received a bar of chocolate from The Grenada Chocolate Company I decided to put it to good use!

The recipe is quite involved and certainly not a quick wizz up mix in the blender.

It didn't hang around for long once I got to the office!
