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.

Hi !
After a break, we're back to chocolate ! In cake form, obviously. Let me introduce you to fondant au chocolat, a classic french dessert, the lovechild of chocolate brownies and chocolate lava cakes. Yep, you read that right. Fondant au chocolat is smack dab in the middle between those two desserts. It is delicious.
Classic French recipe
In French, fondant means melty/melting, so you can be assured that this chocolate cake is just melt-in-your-mouth heavenly goodness. Eat it warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, or cooled with a couple tablespoons of vanilla custard or whipped cream.

It was so hot outside the day I made these Millionaire's Shortbread that the caramel wasn't cooling down and the chocolate top wouldn't set. I had to put it in the freezer for 20+ minutes so it would set, and even when taking pictures of it, I had to go back and forth between the freezer and my photo set-up. Why am I telling you this ? Because a few days later the weather did a 180 and we had rain and wind. What does that weather call for ? Chocolate brownies, of course.
