Chocolate Cake (No Eggs)

This delicious, moist chocolate cake is made without eggs.

I made this chocolate cake because I wanted cookies.
Problem was, I was out of eggs.
I did try to find a recipe for egg free cookies, but I soon realised I probably wouldn't like the result ; I'm not a fan of dry cookies. I then set my mind on finding a recipe for a chocolate cake I could bake without eggs.

I found this one, and then realised I was also out of oil. Seriously, this kind of thing only happens to me. I had butter, though, so I replaced the oil with butter and I was able to eat egg free chocolate cake.
And it was delicious. This chocolate cake is moist, and light despite it having no eggs. Add a generous dusting of icing sugar, some chocolate flakes, and you'll be in chocolate cake heaven. It would definitely pair up well with whipped cream, too.
