Sad Baking Is a Thing. This Chocolate Olive Oil Cake Is Your First Assignment.

Your weekend plans? This chocolate olive oil cake and literally nothing else. It's the brainchild of Becca Rea-Tucker, perhaps better known as @TheSweetFeminist on Insta, an Austin-based baker who decorates cakes and other desserts using powerful, motivational, and oftentimes political messages (you've got to check her out...I'm obsessed). Needless to say, Rea-Tucker knows a little something about baking as a form of therapy. So much so that she literally wrote a book about it, Baking by Feel: Recipes to Sort Out Your Emotions (Whatever They Are Today!), which was released just last week, on October 25. The recipes in the book (including the one below) are organized by feelings that range from frazzled to just plain feisty. And they’re all entirely delicious.
