Moist Pumpkin and Chocolate Cake without Butter
Recipe by Hervé Cuisine
An ultra‑moist cake based on pumpkin puree (or sweet potato, carrot) and dark chocolate, with no added butter. The melted chocolate serves both as an ingredient in the batter and as a shiny glaze thanks to a drizzle of grape seed oil. Ideal for an indulgent, economical dessert without unnecessary fats.
