Today was a grey, drizzly day that got me in the mood for some serious comfort foods. I made this delicious pumpkin chili which I based off of this recipe. Mine is not fat free because I added a good amount of olive oil to cook the vegetables. I also used pumpkin instead of butternut squash. This chili is probably the best I've ever had. It's so flavorful and hearty.
I've been wanting a chocolate cake for the longest time! Now I am having it! I made this basic chocolate cake with a basic chocolate buttercream frosting. You can find a basic buttercream frosting recipe here. Just add 1/2 cup cocoa powder to it. I was going to make a layered cake but I got lazy.
Super moist and chocolatey. I'm a happy girl.
THat is the yummiest vegan chocolate cake i've ever seen! Buttercream definately makes it extra delicieux.
ReplyDeleteI don't know what looks better: the chili or the cake! Either way, I am so hungry for both right now! Mmm.
ReplyDeleteThat's so funny- I made an acorn squash & black bean chili today without having read this post until right now! Yours looks delicious, as does everything else you make... I've randomly read your blog for a few months now & actually bought the Olive Trees & Honey cookbook because everything you've made from it looks so amazing :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for linking to that recipe. I have a gigantic butternut squash at home that would love to become this chili!
ReplyDeleteThat chili looks nice and hearty. I have made the cake and my family liked it a lot. They couldn't believe a vegan cake could taste good.
ReplyDeleteThe picture of the chocolate cake makes it look so perfect, so traditional. You should post that pic on VegWeb!
