If you are like me, then you have some leftover sauerkraut from your St. Patrick’s Day Corned Beef and Cabbage Meal. Well here is a great chocolate cake that uses pureed sauerkraut in place of eggs. What is wonderful about this recipe is that the cake turns out great, no taste of sauerkraut but a great chocolate taste with a super moist texture. It reminds me a lot of a chocolate pudding cake. This is a great guiltless dessert.
