Swapping in fruity olive oil for butter in a cake recipe makes for a super moist crumb and a lovely flavor overall.  The taste of quality olive oil pairs very nicely with the rich taste of chocolate in this Venetian cake recipe from Food & Wine magazine.  Cocoa powder is the chocolate source for the cake, and the bit of crunch throughout comes from buttery walnuts.  A simple cake that is perfectly sweet but not overwhelmingly sweet, that I love pairing with a dollop of vanilla-scented mascarpone cheese.
