That's why I was so happy with these miniature bites of flourless chocolate indulgence that were inspired by Chocolate Covered Katie's infamous blondies and Barefoot Baker's cocoa version of them. These gluten free, vegan mini cakes are dark, dense and rich - just sweet enough, with a touch of fruity elegance from my homemade cherry jam. I chose to make the flavour more "complex" than "sugary" by combining xylitol, stevia, glycerin and brown sugar in with the flavourful coconut oil, nutty quinoa and hearty, creamy adzuki beans. These are really rich, so a tiny piece satisfies!
