Week 35: Picnic Cake

The Recipe
250g soft butter
250g sugar
3 eggs
75g coconut flour
200g flour
1 tsp baking powder
50g chocolate, chopped
1 small can pineapples (220g)

Nib sugar ("perlesukker" in Danish). Ordinary sugar can be used as a substitute.
Nut flakes.

Drain the pineapples, reserving about half the fluid. Put pineapples and fluid into a blender (or similar) and pulse until it's turned to mush.

Mix together butter and sugar until thoroughly incorporated. Add eggs and mix. Add remaining ingredients, including pineapple mash.

Pour into a greased ovenproof dish (~20cm x 25cm). Sprinkle sugar and nut flakes on top.

Bake at 175C for 40 minutes or until done.

The Verdict
Really delicious cake... but then, I'm likely to love anything with chocolate and nuts ;)
Easy to make, so will probably be a stable in my repertoire from here on.
