Chocolate Tea Cake With Whipped Persimmon

Chocolate Tea Cake

Chocolate Tea Cake With Whipped Persimmon.  I made this chocolate cake purposefully small, so it could be a treat, without being high in calories and sugar.  It turned out perfectly–chocolate with a light sweetness, low in carbs and hidden nutrition with yellow squash.  The Urban Dictionary defines Tea Cake as:   ” pastry, bread, or cake traditionally served with afternoon tea, that can be eaten with the fingers.”  By all means, let them eat cake…with their fingers.   Vegan, gluten free and dairy free.
