This looks great and I'd love to make it. Could you tell me, will this cake be red or are the beets just for moistness?

I made this recipe today in mini bundt cake form and it's fantastic. I highly recommend it! Thanks for sharing.

The baking directions have got to be wrong! When I made this cake I had to bake it for 35 minutes. When I tested it after 20 minutes it was mush. (I used 2 8 inch cake pans). Also it was not very chocolately. I will not use this recipe again.

Specific ingredients I used: brown sugar for the cake. Roasted the beets in advance, removing the surface skin before dicing. Canola oil for salad oil. Good quality semi-sweet chocolatier-style chocolate for the cake.
