Hello Steemians! I would like to share this recipe of mine. I just turned 30 and for that, I made this healthy vegan chocolate cake which my fiance loved so much. It's super easy to make. Give it a shot and try to make it if you love chocolate cake. This one here is healthy, so you can indulge and have no worries. :-)
Ingredients
- 2 cups 275g felt flour
- 3/4 cup cocoa powder 100g
- 2 tsp bicarbonate of soda baking
- 1 tsp baking powder
- a pinch of salt
- 1 3/4 cups coconut milk 450ml
- 2 tsp red wine vinegar
- 1 3/4 cups coconut sugar 320g
- 1 1/4 cups sunflower oil 320ml coconut oil is a great alternative
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
Vegan Chocolate Ganache Frosting
- 250 g vegan dark chocolate roughly chopped
- 2/3 cup coconut milk
- vegan butter
- 1cup coconut sugar
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 160 celsius (315 fahrenheit)
- Grease a 23cm (9 inch) cake tin and line the base with baking paper.
- Combine the coconut milk, vinegar, brown sugar, oil, and vanilla extract in a large bowl and whisk.
- Sift the flour, cocoa, bicarb, baking powder and salt into a bowl. Sift again. Add to milk mixture and whisk until smooth.
- To thin the consistency (if needed) add more milk, or to thicken add more powdered sugar.
- Pour the mixture into the prepared cake tin and bake for 40 to 55 minutes, or until a cake tester inserted into the middle of the cake comes out with almost no crumbs attached. The middle of the cake should also spring back when lightly pressed. Place on a wire cake rack and leave to cool in the tin.
- To make the frosting, melt cacao nibs into a cup of hot water and stir. Add coconut milk and set aside.
- Cream butter and sugar. Add the cacao milk mixture. Mix altogether.
- Pour the frosting over the cake and gently easy down the sides with an offset spatula. Top with raspberries or your fruit of choice, if using.
Have a happy cooking!
