What’s that cake recipe with the twist

I've been wrecking my brain about this recipe I saw online a while back. It wasn't your standard cake, it had something strange in it, like a vegetable? The texture was supposed to be amazing and it had this peculiar frosting, something tangy like cream cheese but with a twist. I've been dying to try it out but can't find the recipe again. It was a chocolate cake but the secret ingredient is what made it exceptional. Anyone familiar with what I'm talking about?

I actually think I might know the cake you're talking about! Is it the one with a mascarpone honey frosting? I remember because it was like a twist on the typical cheese frosting and it was paired with some unexpected ingredient in the cake... celery? No, wait, not celery... CARROTS! A twist on carrot cake but with a lighter, fluffier texture?

I'm always on the hunt for interesting recipes and I think you might be talking about Chocolate Avocado Cake! Avocado makes the cake really moist and the frosting might have had some lime or lemon juice to give it a zesty kick. Let me know if this sounds right and I'll dive into my collection to find the recipe. I'm sure it's somewhere in my kitchen chaos!

Man, this is making me crave cake like crazy. Haven’t heard of the veggie twist but for some mind-blowing frosting, you ever try mixing a little bit of chili powder into cream cheese frosting? It’s like, spicy-sweet and goes great with chocolate. Not sure if that's the twist you meant but dang, now I want some.

This sounds reminiscent of a beetroot chocolate cake I've made before. The beetroot puree is the secret ingredient that gives the cake an incredible texture, deep color, and a touch of natural sweetness. The frosting you're describing could involve a hint of goat cheese or even a balsamic reduction swirled into the cream cheese for that unique flavor profile. If that rings any bells, I can sift through my bookmarks for a recipe like that.

Hmm, sounds like you're talking about a zucchini chocolate cake. The zucchini makes it super moist but doesn't change the chocolatey taste. As for the frosting, maybe it’s something with citrus like orange zest mixed into the cream cheese to give it that tangy twist. I’ve seen recipes like this floating around Pinterest, maybe check there?
