Ingredients

  • For the cake:
  • 1 1/2 Cups Flour
  • 3 Tbs Cocoa Powder
  • 1 Cup Sugar
  • 1 Tsp Baking Soda
  • 1/2 Tsp Salt
  • 1 Tsp Apple Cider Vinegar
  • 1 Tsp Vanilla
  • 5 Tbs Coconut oil melted
  • 1 Cup Water

Vegan Chocolate Butter cream

  • 1 Cup Chocolate Chips
  • 5 Tbs Coconut Oil softened
  • 1 1/2 Cups Powdered Sugar

Instructions

  • For the cake
  • Preheat oven to 350. Line the bottom of a springform pan with parchment paper, spray the pan with cooking spray.
  • Into the bottom of the pan directly put the first 5 ingredients, then mix them with a whisk.
  • Make 3 wells into the dry ingredients with the back of a spoon, 2 small ones and 1 larger one.
  • In one of the small ones pour the vinegar, in the other small well pour the vanilla. Then in the larger one pour the water and the coconut oil. Put the zest of the cutie towards the center and then the juice of the cuties on top of the water/coconut oil well. With a whisk combine all ingredients.It will be a more dense, sticky consistency,
  • Bake for 30 minutes then let cool for 10 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean, then remove springform and let cool a little more before transferring to a plate or cake stand and frosting (I frosted mine when it was still a little warm).
  • For the frosting, in a microwave safe bowl pour in chocolate chips. Microwave at 30 second intervals until melted stirring in between (mine took about a minute and a half). In the bowl of a stand mixer with the whisk attachment beat the coconut oil for a minute to cream it, then scrape down the sides and add the powdered sugar and beat for a minute. Scrape down the sides again and then slowly add the melted chocolate chips and vanilla and beat until it is a nice fluffy frosting (about a minute.)
  • Frost the cake and enjoy!
