  • Add vanilla essence to it. Blend well for 5 seconds.
  • Now add cooked quinoa, cane sugar.
  • Blend until smooth(it will still be slightly coarse). After grinding I tasted and felt the sugar less so added little and gave a quick blend.
  • Prepare the baking mold by laying butter paper. Now pour this mixture into the mould.Tap few times to level the top.
  • Bake in preheated oven at 175 deg C for 20-25 mins.

  • Serve Quinoa Chocolate Cake with chocolate sauce!

Notes

  • If you are using regular white sugar then you can add just 1/2 cup itself.
