Since I made my last coconut flour cake, it’s become a sort of an addiction for me to bake with it. As I mentioned before, coconut flour yields deliciously moist cakes bake faster and are dense enough that you don’t need to use as much of it as you would other flours.
I’ve been baking marble cake with it for the past two weeks; a little differently every time until it was simply well balanced. I’ve been enjoying the experimentation.
Combining two amazing flavors like vanilla and chocolate in the same cake is a delicious feat. Think hot fudge sundae, think chocolate chip cookies. Whenever vanilla and chocolate meet in a recipe, two wonderfully opposite worlds play in harmony.
