10 Special Mediterranean Diet Recipes to Celebrate the New Year

7. Mediterranean Diet Recipes to Celebrate – Chocolate Cake

While we are on the subject of desserts, I would be remiss if I did not include the most visited recipe on Olive Sunshine. The Mediterranean Diet Chocolate Cake is super moist, with a flaky crumb. The batter resembles a brownie batter, but thanks to the sourdough it bakes up fluffy with a rich chocolate taste. This cake has just the right amount of sweetness. It reminds me of a dark cocoa bar, but not a bitter 90%, more like a sweet grown up 70% chocolate bar. This cake is perfect served with a brush of powdered sugar. It is perfect as a midnight treat.
