COUNTY FAIR GRAND CHAMP CHOCOLATE BEET CAKE
I found this many years ago, made and entered it in our County Fair and won Grand Champion. I sent it to Gooseberry Publication as well and got published in one of their dessert cookbooks. The first time I made it, I kept everyone out of the kitchen so they wouldn't see the beets or they never would have tried it. This is so moist and chocolatey, really yummy. Hope you try and enjoy.
