Willpower is overrated! I made Chocolate Walnut Cake!

I think eating healthy is really important most of the time. Even so, life would be so boring if we didn't break the rules from time to time. I am never going to pass up a great glass of red wine, and I will never not eat chocolate. So when I saw this picture is Crazy Sexy Kitchen I knew it would only be a matter of time before I had to make it. Here is what you will need to find yourself in chocolate bliss:
I really wasn't sure how this cake would hold together without the eggs? I was afraid it would just crumble into pieces. I was careful to follow the instructions not to over stir the cake. I folded the ingredients together. Ya know what I got in return? The most moist cake ever! Not to mention when my kids wanted to lick the batter from the bowl, I could say go for it because there weren't any eggs.
I did have some issues with the frosting for some reason. I poured all my ingredients together to make the frosting, but it just became a liquidity mess. So I started over adding my dry ingredients first, and then adding the liquid ingredients a little at a time. That time it came out great. The cake was addicting. It wasn't as sweet as most chocolate cakes, and the walnuts in the batter really made this cake taste amazing.
I bet you want a piece huh!
