• Combine all ingredients together.  Its best to
  add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients
  and mix in slowly. 
• Grease a round 20cm cake tin and pour mixture
  into the tin.
• Bake at 180 degrees for 40 45 minutes.  Test by
  poking a skewer in.  If it comes out dry the cake
  is cooked.
• Please note, this cake is an extremely moist cake
  and once cooked and cut will be quite moist and
  almost a bit wet and fudgy inside.

• FROSTING
• Peel and pit avocado and place in blender along
  with rest of ingredients.
• Blend until you get a smooth, thick frosting.
• Taste to ensure it is to your liking. This
  frosting is not overly sweet, however add more
  maple syrup to create a sweeter version.
• Once cake is cooled generously cover the cake in
  this divine frosting.
