Although it seemed a little laborious at first, this turned out quite well and I likened the texture of the cake to that of a pumpkin pie filling: smooth and creamy! Super chocolatey too! I was expecting a more dense cake but was pleasantly surprised at how its smooth and creamy texture lightens it up.
The icing made of coconut oil is good, but I would almost prefer the cake on it's own. I omitted the addition of the instant coffee just because I never have the stuff around the kitchen (quite possibly this could have made the difference between a good icing and an awesome one). If dairy and I had a better relationship, I would have slapped on a cream cheese icing instead. *drool*
Cooking time for the cake is 40 minutes @ 325 F, although I found that I needed an extra 10-15 minutes with my finicky oven to have the centre cooked.
All in all, this cake was FANTASTIC! I will definitely be making this cake again, great for birthdays, pot lucks and the like. Nice work Amazing Paleo and I definitely recommend this one to all you paleo lovers! :)
