Egg-less Chocolate Sticky Date and Cashew Nut Cake
This BM we had ingredient share and I want to show off as my partner, Amara has praised my baking. What she sent me was dates, cashew nuts and sugar. This was the first bake I did. I loved the sticky texture and the yummy chocolaty taste.
I almost gave up baking this cake as I had already baked using dates like Egg-less Date and Walnut Cake, Komaj, but then like I said my ego would not allow me. Though this one is similar to the one from Aai’s recipe that was my first bake with dates I will prefer this method as there is no pre-planning. I copied it from the Woman’s Weekly Baking. Actually, there is a chocolate icing that goes over it but I did not do it.
Come back tomorrow to see my final bake.

Chitra says
Nice Recipe. I want to try with palm sugar or jaggary. But i find no measurement of cocoa powder. Is it compulsory to add? Because i have tried without cocoa powder and chocolate chips already. It came out well exactly like chocolate cake. Please clarify.
ArchanaPotdar says
The cocoa powder was my addition as my girls like a chocolate cake. It is totally optional. Thanks for bringing it to my notice that I had not updated the ingredients list. As for palm sugar or jaggery, I like the idea but since I am not sure about the sweetness of the ingredients will like you to please update me when you try. Thanks once again.
Chitra says
Thanks for the quick reply. I tried it today with jaggary. I took the same measurement as mentioned in the recipe. There is no difference in the taste. As you said the cocoa powder is optional i left it.
Cake tastes good. But it didn't raise like normal cakes do. My people said it is a bit dense and tastes like halwa. But everyone enjoyed it.
Thanks again.
ArchanaPotdar says
Thanks Chitra for the update will try is sometime soon. Thanks once again for trying the recipe.
Mayuri Patel says
Love cakes with dates, not only does it impart a sweet and earthy taste, but the cakes are soft. Like how you've added chocolate bits in the cake.Eggless chocolate sticky date and cashew nut cake is a treat I'd love to bake for Valentine's Day.
ArchanaPotdar says
😀 Thanks.
Neha says
This eggless chocolate sticky date and cashew nut cake looks marvelous. Awesome combination and the cake looks soft too. I mostly use eggs but will try this eggless version. Nice post!
ArchanaPotdar says
😀 Thanks, Neha.

Wow, what a lovely cake. I am giving this a go for the weekend when my cousin is coming. I will give the chocolate-free version a try.
