Eat Well Live Free - Swingin’ Mad Good Chocolate Cake with Strawberry Sauce

It is a clear gorgeous day in Sacramento, and I am sitting at my computer listening to Frank Sinatra thinking about this Mad Good Chocolate Cake in front of me. The dense chocolate cake is filled with a decadent creamy chocolate ganache sitting in a pool of freshly puréed sweet spring strawberries.

It all brings me back to my wedding day that was just one year ago this month. We had swing dancers and DJ’s from Midtown Stomp, the local swing dancing venue where Marcos and I met. And the wedding cake. The cake was made by our dear friend Lisa. It was declared on site the most amazing chocolate cake with fresh strawberry sauce ever consumed at a wedding. Not a crumb was left. We spent the evening dancing under the stars, and have danced again, and again (mostly in our kitchen) many nights since.

I was given a complete re-do early in life. It started with eating better. Eating better was the key to feeling better emotionally and physically. Eating better landed me in this life filled with music and dancing and eating mad good chocolate cake with my honey.

This recipe is from Millenium Cookbook, Heaven’s gift to vegan foodies. A few new techniques here and the use of substitute ingredients such as silken tofu may be new to you, but are very simple to follow. All ingredients can be found in any grocery store and are inexpensive. Try it, you will love it!
