Chocolate and Beetroot Karydopita is a twist of mine to a traditional Greek Cake made with walnuts and then moistened with a syrup. The addition of chocolate and beetroots is my addition.
Karydopita (pr. ka-ree-dho-pee-tah) is a Greek walnut cake made with lots of walnuts and bathed in a sweet syrup. The word “karydi” (καρύδι) means walnut and “pita” (πίτα) means pie.
