I made this into a "spice cake" by subbing for the cocoa a pinch each of cinnamon, clove, and nutmeg and adding a teaspoon of shredded coconut. Delicious!!
Latest tweaks: cinnamon and ginger, a pinch each. A tablespoon of grated coconut instead of cocoa. A tablespoon of chunky peanutbutter hidden in the middle of the cake.
Chickpea or "gram" flour is available at any Asian supermarket and often from healthfood stores. Grinding chickpeas in a home grinder will burn out the motor. Ask me how I know this...
