Tiny House Cooking - Chocolate Applesauce Cake

[@carolmadge4012]

I don't know how you have so much counter spaces in your kitchen. In NY I had less. Love watching you cook. Hope you have your own TV show. What am I saying? You do!!! Love it. Thank you so very much.

[@MelissaBrownapt215]

Love learning from you. You're a natural teacher. Would love to be your homestead student if I had a tiny house or small stationary cottage.

chocolat ! yummmmmm, thumbs up! ooh la la and the recipe too, you forget nothing darling! xo

[@Sean-ll5cm]

I'll be trying this. I love cake. Dry cake, moist cake, any cake. lol. It's one of those little things that make life wonderful.

[@luciousbrun5437]

Try taking a few to Yemen then and stop being selfish.

[@MsJokyo]

I love these recipes - they're not hoity-toity or more fancy than necessary. Simple and homey sorta stuff, you know? Please post more!

[@RoadtripNeeded]

I really enjoy watching your cooking videos!

[@lasttrain5033]

looks good fy so glad you have your new stove to start baking again

[@FyNyth]

Me too!

[@magtye40]

So funny you should mention not knowing about box cake mix, in much older than you (62) but I had the same amazement after I married and saw Mac and cheese in a box lol!

[@harrywolfgang6001]

Cake made from scratch is best. Rich moist. Super.😘

[@luciousbrun5437]

Do you mean from wet blood or scabs ?

[@kevin70humensky19]

Looks so yummy I love chocolate with applesauce sounds like awesome cake love all baking and different foods you make so good

[@FordFracture]

I wish my phone had smell o vision because that looks good and I'm starving !

[@Phil1stalk]

I'd just bought a new box of baking chocolate powder. And I need something new to do for a moist cake from scratch. I have bananas ripening right now for a banana bread/cake. Anytime you add carrots, bananas, or something like that it adds to moistness and flavor. But you don't taste carrots, or here the applesauce. Good show!!

[@Phil1stalk]

Man, what a nice new stove! I can't imagine what the delivery problems are for your area (dents), but try using Amazon for better reliability down the line!

[@charliewood4158]

1 gal of milk and a big fork and I think I could eat that whole thing LOL I bet your whole house smells yummy

[@luciousbrun5437]

Why does the fork need to be a big one ? Or are you a baby ?

[@amandavallies6420]

That looks really good !

[@kimberlymayo9951]

Was hoping to see an overhead of the final product. Looks great from the side view. Will have to try it.

[@justme-dee6888]

Another great recipe! Especially loved the tip of saving the butter wrapper to butter your pan. Brilliant! Don't know why I hadn't thought of that before!😳

[@SandyzSerious]

Looks so good.

[@offline1114]

Quick and easy, just what the doctor ordered!! : )

[@joshenyou360]

YUM! That looks like something my family and I would love.

[@cliffp.8396]

Chocolate is my favorite flavor darlin, this cake looks tasty.

[@ShirleyMiller-f6p]

❤your cooking videos in that tiny house kitchen

[@GILLEBRATH]

Perferct as us us usual Arial .Thanks again .

[@jodysappington7008]

thank you for sharing....looks good

[@dewfew1]

Ariel that Looks mighty tasty. Thank you for sharing another wonderful video. dd

[@stephaniehastie4655]

I made this yesterday. Absolutely delicious!!!!

[@FyNyth]

Nice! Glad you enjoyed it!

[@dutch971]

Another gem to add in your cooking playlist. Thank you.

[@KH2837]

that looks awesome...mail me a peice to TN! lol

[@mactagg8814]

I must try this one too! Im a choco-holic lol!! Peanutbutter and chocolate = taste bud paradise! With a chocolate cake butterscotch chips add nicely to the flavor. One of my favorite desserts is a warm brownie topped with a scoop of icecream. I kind of have a sweet tooth (or 2 😉). A few days ago I made a 9x13 gooey buttercake adding cocoa to the base. Soo good. Erm, its gone already! Not very healthy I know, but sure was yummy! A tip for using dairy 'real' butter, which of course is harder that oil base butter. Right out of the fridg shred it using a cheese grater. Easier to mix. Easier and quicker to melt. Spreads easier on toast too. Good vid, as usual.👍

[@FyNyth]

Oh yeah, if you're not allergic to it, adding peanut butter to this probably would be good!

[@JW-es5un]

I also use applesauce in my cake recipes.. We are making this cake in the morning.. I love making food from scratch. (Cannot stand store bought icing/frosting) My Granddaughter is 7 She is a good baker. I know what she is baking.. Thanks for sharing your recipes.😀💕

[@frederickoning191]

Ariel that looks so good! Thank you. The windows allow a lot of natural light ....seems so pleasant.

[@aguacolours]

I think adding a more generous amount of cocoa, applesauce or eggs, nuts and a variety of chocolate chips will enhance the flavor even more 😋. Suggestion, optional, decorate with chocolate dipped strawberries to "gild the lily"? Mini Meatloaf recipe a huge favorite! Thank you for sharing😊.

[@smilesmile8513]

I'm gonna make this today!!! Happy Love day!!

[@sarahkuhr420]

like a brownie cake. I will try something like it.

[@badroolshaw2638]

[@michelled5273]

Great idea to use your butter paper to grease the pan!

[@kathyc139]

Thanks Ariel, it looks delicious and easy too!

[@CC-xk6cp]

Hi again! What an easy fun recipe. I've come to enjoy your vids so much but the recipes you have are really great. Pretty sure you have a bunch so hope you keep sharing. Didn't see Grizzly but give her a pat. Thx again

[@FyNyth]

She was napping on the couch. :)

[@djpenton779]

Oooh nice. I jvolunteered to bring a desert to a club gathering. And, I just made a batch of applesauce. So I looked up applesauce chocolate cake and found this. My attempt turned out great. Thanks!

[@emdesigns40]

Your awesome. Love your cooking videos and you. Great job.

[@phyllisstein1837]

Yummy! I’m not even finished watching the video and I’m getting up to make this cake right NOW! Thank you for the recipe.

[@phyllisstein1837]

Ok, that’s in the oven. I’ll check it in 40-45 minutes.

[@voyager4328]

man oh man, my mouth is watering, ; )

[@jenniferadderley8219]

Quick n easy 👌 that looks great!! 🌏xx

[@Skylersthemann1]

Looks great! I look forward to trying this sometime

[@Vintagebeliever]

LOL about the boxed cake mixes. I love to cook from scratch. :)

[@stankormy5717]

Delicious!

[@timperley69]

When can i come over?? Looks real good!!!

[@FyNyth]

Already gone! :)

[@lanahallock1118]

Wowzer yum!

[@terrymelanson9116]

nice job .you are perfect

[@catyear75]

I Love your cooking/baking videos Ariel! How cool is it that you can use your own apples !? Moist cake rocks ! Gluten Free is a plus ( not an issue for me, but for some family members) I can't wait to try this !

[@natalienicolaou1]

Must be so nice to say you're just going to turn on your OVEN!! Looks delish. I'm definitely trying!!

[@FyNyth]

It is after two months without it!

[@JEMCochran49]

That looks simple enough for even a clutz like me to do. Thanks.

[@FyNyth]

Go for it!

[@clint2211]

Hi, Ariel! Thank you for this video! I was thinking of M&Ms instead of the chocolate morsels but since you are adding nuts as well it occurred to me that Trail Mix may make a good topping.

[@rickharrison7458]

Yum

[@ceecea7988]

Hmmm I wonder how apple sauce is made?

[@FyNyth]

Well basically, cook and mash apples. Strain seeds/cores/peels. Add cinnamon if you like. :)

[@Mittibh]

The stove is back 😋🤤😋🤤😋🤤😋 and the avocado mousse was yummy too by the way I tried making it !!! X

[@FyNyth]

Nice!

[@Quietspirit10]

Hi-made this cake today and it is really moist. I cut the recipe in half because it's just my husband and I. Will definitely recommend and make again. Thanks!!

[@FyNyth]

Perfect!

[@uniquelyordinary6245]

Yummy!

[@normabonilla8910]

Nice love it norma

[@randyowens2717]

Love it!

[@carolmadge4012]

Got NY sister in NY to watch you.

[@sharonhale80]

After watching your video....I went into the kitchen and made this delicious Chocolate Applesauce cake. Did not have any Chocolate chips and my pecans are on the verge of turning rancid.. so just made the cake part and I will tell you IT IS SO DELICIOUS and so lite, fluffy and moist.. I put it in 2 9" square dishes and by last night one was all gone....I have a bad habit of taking a taste each time I am near any cake... I know I'm BAD but it tastes so GOOO. Thanks for sharing this with all of us.

[@FyNyth]

I'm so glad you liked it!

[@johnmccormick175]

mmmmmmmmmmmmmm looks delicious :-)

[@Patriot11111]

Looks good but I feel bad - the doggy did not get to lick the bowl.

[@mmforeverelvisful]

yummy Ariel :)

[@TeeMarie36]

Amazing,I'm going to try his recipe because I'm gluten intolerant also.

[@brewatch]

I’m so glad your stove arrived. The white definitely opens up the space, it looks much brighter. Thanks for the recipe!

[@Freespirit5371]

Yum, yum!

[@ramona14220]

Wait, where is the end result? I mean eating it. It looked so good. When you shovel snow you show a clean path, right? Ummm. I am so bummed out! lol.

[@michellebrooks7282]

Tip: you can make your own cake mix just put all the dry ingredients in a main jar&date the day you made it...

[@indie825]

I haven't made an apple sauce cake in a very long time. There must be a BIG home baked aroma in tiny Fy Nyth. :) This look delicious, but will need to wait a bit as I'm waiting for my avocados to ripen and I have apples and cranberries pending for a pie and apple cider vinegar.

[@Phil1stalk]

Here's the problem. Even with a "friend" coming over that's still too much leftover cake for me. I have to give so much food away just to make simple recipes like a cake, pie, lasagna, etc., even with freezer space! But I need to cook. I think I'm going to buy a restaurant or something; pizza maybe. I'm like Rocky at the tops of those steps when I'm cooking!

[@FyNyth]

You can always cut the recipe in half and use a 9x9 pan if you don't want to end up with a pan this size.

[@benshafer3124]

Ariel , i knew it backing all the GOOD stuff, that's that making me hungry all the way from Fl, i make my brownies with apple sauce, was that RAW sugar ? scratch is alot better health wise and lot cheaper too. smells good LOL, you made a dessert so whats for suppa , i looks good , some vanilla bean ice cream , Thanks for your response

[@FyNyth]

That was not, but I do have and use raw sugar as well.

[@KevinGrinnan]

What is the best way to make really good cornbread from scratch

[@pennyfisher3329]

Wish there were smelltube😍 have you tried oatmeal cake super moist also totally scratch. Love your video s

[@FyNyth]

Yeah that is good too!

[@barbaracarbone4658]

Wow that looks so delicious....and ez too. I love ez and not too many ingredients. Thanks much!! Do u store it in fridge?

[@FyNyth]

Depends. If it's going to be around more than a day or two, yeah. But most of the time, it's gone pretty quick. :)

[@WESSERPARAQUAT]

Not a bad cook ;) I'm off sugar so I would probably use stevia with unrefined honey and grain free flours , coconut would be a good choice and I would use Raw Cacao by nukraft which I use for making chocolate bars superb quality chocolate powder, and that is a nice kitchen you have there nice setup

[@FyNyth]

Sounds perfect!

[@littlewhitedory1]

What was your experience with the temperature accuracy in your new oven? Looks nice!

[@FyNyth]

Seemed right on.

[@marywest2896]

when I was a visiting nurse in the hills of Arkansas a patient who was known for her desserts told me this----If you have the same amount of sugar as you do cake flour you will have a moist cake example (-2cups sugar and 2cups flour)..... also WR Flour is even better than cake flour. I seem to agree with her . Have used applesauce to be able to cut down on the amount of fat, usually oil. I use it to cut down oil with muffins as well. When I do- I usually use one fourth applesauce to the rest of oil. Am glad you are showing cooking videos. Do you make deer or moose or elk sausage? what would the herbs you would use. Used to make sausage with my mother, but never was "in charge" of the seasonings, and Mama never wrote any recipes down, now can't even think about what they would be, except red pepper!!!!

[@FyNyth]

No I've never made sausage. It's just a flavor I've never personally liked much, but I'm sure you could google lots of good recipes!

[@dfhepner]

Ariel, Looks good. Do you save the egg shells for the compost or are they too much of a lure for critters? When you did the chocolate mousse with avocados, I looked up how a chocolate mousse was normally made and found that the egg yolk was an emulsifier to hold every thing together. The avocado had compounds that act as an emulsifier. I took an avocado that I had and mixed it up with olive oil, lemon juice and vinegar with a bit of garlic. It made a good sandwich spread to replace mayonnaise. Always learning new stuff from you.

[@Phil1stalk]

The Three Stooges throw the egg shells right in with the cake batter! Crispy, crunchy recipe!

[@FyNyth]

I do compost shells. Nothing has ever seemed to bother them other than an occasional squirrel moving a few around. And yeah, the other thing the avocado has is lots of fat which replaces the butter in a traditional mousse. :)

[@athollmcnicoll256]

Nice looking easy to make cake but for my taste its missing one ingredient when serving spoon over Ice Cream or Double Fresh Cream to give it that Oomph taste!

[@cynthiaesparza4547]

If only using coconut flour, you would have only needed half a cup or 25 percent of the amount of wheat flour recommended for the recipe. Some even say only 20 percent is needed. It does absorb a lot of moisture but is nice that only a small amount of flour is needed so cost effective compared to almond flour.

[@FyNyth]

Interesting. I've not found there to be much of a difference that I've noticed in my cooking.

[@RebelRebelRose]

What kind of sugar do you use? I've experimented using moreno and turbinado but they don't do well in cookies and cakes. They make it very dry

[@FyNyth]

If I am just using sugar and not honey, I like raw organic cane sugar since most sugar beets are GMO now.

[@tanfo8]

Wish I was tasting that

[@FyNyth]

Well make yourself one! :) You can always cut the recipe in half and use a 9x9 pan if you don't want to end up with a pan this size.

[@tanfo8]

Fy Nyth I just may do that

[@hopeinhim9269]

I make the dairy free ranch dressing you shared in another video. Since you use butter I was wondering why you make the dairy free ranch dressing. Which I have been very much enjoying. I use butter flavored coconut oil when baking. I am not vegan just can't do dairy.

[@FyNyth]

Glad you like it! I've never officially tested anything, but I know that my body doesn't tolerate something in milk, but cream/butter doesn't bother me. There's lots of different proteins etc in milk and I think different people have a hard time with different parts of it.

[@angelortiz37A]

Can I use oat flour?

[@aleencross]

Girl, you making it hard for me to lose this weight because now I am going to try this. So pray for me!!! Lol!

[@FyNyth]

Well, make things like this for other people so you only eat one piece, and then fill up on veggies, fermented foods, good clean water, and some pastured meat. :)

[@northfielder1789]

Using the new stove already,,, but for good reason, ummmmm

[@elizabethmcgovern9731]

OMG to Die For YUM YUM you are very Irish looking maybe we are related ?, this means when you are baking yummy cakes i get invited haha I LOVE CHOCOLATE ,BIG HUG. PD. PS> We are allowed to receive care parcels ,hahaha.

[@FyNyth]

As far as I know my family is 7/8 Swiss/German with a bit of Scottish. But one side (Scottish branch) get's lost in an orphanage fire so maybe there was a bit of Irish there too. :)

[@elizabethmcgovern9731]

HAHA I am not greedy just 10% of your yum yum cakes will be sufficient for two oldies ,keep safe paul D.

[@charlesdorey4343]

No hens for eggs?

[@FyNyth]

Not here, I don't think I could keep them alive with the sheer volume of predators and the cold weather. But once I'm settled into my new place, chickens are in the plans for sure!

[@angelortiz37A]

So 4 eggs?

[@oddopops1327]

:-)

[@bobhale8325]

My wife and I watched your video together and then she disappeared into another room. About 10 minutes later I went into the kitchen and she has your recipe out and is starting to mix ingredients for your cake. OK, store bought apple sauce, white wheat flower and no chips or nuts for topping, but I'll bet it is going to be good. Sad comment: Store apples are flavorless. Like all fruit, it seems apples have been modified for shelf life at the expense of flavor. You are very lucky to have your own apple trees.

[@FyNyth]

Nice!

[@cathylynnpietranton]

The cake looks very delicious but I recently became a vegan so I can't do eggs or butter.

[@FyNyth]

Try coconut oil for the butter and extra applesauce for the eggs. I've not substituted these in this recipe, but I have in other recipes in the past.

[@cathylynnpietranton]

thanks Ariel for the tips.

[@bobhale8325]

OK, your Chocolate Applesauce Cake is delicious (more delicious when we get all of the ingredients). Here is a picture of Honey (Sharon) with her 2 9x9 cake pans of goodness: dgqe.com/BVS1/Fy-Nyth-cake.jpg

[@FyNyth]

Lovely!

[@Graveltrucking]

So you ate too much of the cake and now your tummy is telling you why did you do that lol. Cake looks good, a lot of sugar in it plus the fruit sugar you would have one heck of a sugar buzz.

[@FyNyth]

As I said, I cook for others, so only one piece for me. :)
