Beetroot Chocolate Cake

This is a delicious moist chocolate cake, that does not at all taste like beetroot, beetroot is very good for you and apparently is good for cleansing the blood or something like that.
So this was made up on the spot as with most things made by the hands of a Sally. So it is very difficult for us to recall exactly logically and rationally how we made it....
But am sure it went something like this...

peel and then chop in small pieces a medium sized beetroot drop it in a pot covered with water and boil it to a mashing point.
put some butter and cocoa powder and vanilla essence in a pot with some chocolate bits and melt the butter and chocolate and stir it all together, YUM add the mashed up beetroot mix and do not overcook it, just keep it warm,
sift in some flour and baking powder to a big mixing bowl, drop and egg or two in and some sour cream if you are feeling fancy then add the warm beet melted butter chocolate mix mix this all together now, it should be a thick runny consistency if not add some milk and ready to be put into a cake pan and into an oven at a standard baking temp...
