Wholefood Simply by Bianca

Bianca recently entered the MKR competition and we wanted to show her a bit of support by converting one of her recipes and sharing it with you.

Bianca writes beautiful quick recipes that are made from “wholefoods”. Her recipes aren’t Thermomix specific, but they are VERY easy to do in any blender. We asked Bianca if we could convert one of her delicious recipes and share it here on our blog… she said yes and then we had the very difficult task of deciding which recipe to choose.

Chrystalla selected the 5 ingredient Mud Cake recipe to convert because she said:

“I have a sweet tooth, so I couldn’t go past this decadant mud cake. Yum!”

We thought that you might like the recipe because it is gluten free, dairy free, refined sugar free, made from dark chocolate and totally delicious.

If you do like this recipe, then can you please show your support by voting for Bianca on the MKR competition. More details below.

• If you are wanting to ice the cake the Nutella recipe works perfectly.
• Decorate the top of the cake with some berries and/or nuts like we did when we made it – instagram photo below:
