My children love this moist, chocolaty cake. It is especially good when topped with butter cream frosting and Winnie the Pooh sprinkles.

Notes

The coconut oil makes this a wonderful, flavorful cake; however, the integrity of the final product is only good for cupcakes. I don’t recommend making it as a full-sized cake.

For a dessert, this snack includes coconut oil and is rich in calcium and iron.
