About
The Dates & Walnut Chocolate Cake is a healthy dessert option made without sugar, butter, or maida (refined flour). Sweetened naturally with dates, it offers a rich, moist texture and a deep chocolate flavor. Whole wheat flour or alternative flours like almond flour are used instead of maida. Walnuts add a delightful crunch and boost the nutritional value with healthy fats and proteins. This cake is ideal for those looking for a wholesome, guilt-free indulgence.
