Vegan Blueberry and Violet Chocolate Cake Bites


Blueberry and Violet Chocolate Cake Bites
*Prep time: 15 mins  *Cook Time: 10 minutes *Servings: 24 bites

Ingredients
1/2 cup + 1 tbsp blueberry preserves
1 cup sugar 
1/3 cup canola oil 
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 tsp almond extract
2 tsp creme de violette
**creme de violette is a voilet liquor you can find at your local total wine in the cordials section. 
1/2 cup + 2 tbsp unsweetened coco powder
Ghirardelli coco powder is worth the extra few bucks. I promise. 
1 1/2 cups unbleached all purpose flour
3/4 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt


Step 1: Preheat your oven to 350. Lightly grease your cookie sheet. 
Step 2: In a large bowl mix the blueberry preserves, sugar, canola oil, vanilla, almond and creme de violette. 
Step 3: In a separate bowl sift together the remaining ingredients. 
Step 4: Add the wet to the dry in 2 batches. 
Step 5: Using a tablespoon, plop the batter down onto the baking sheet leaving 1" between each cake bite.  
Step 6: Bake for 10 minutes. While you wait lick any remaining batter from the bowl, and all spoons involved in this process. Let cookies cook for 5 minutes.
