I love baking for friends and family on their birthdays. Back when I was a little kid, the most exciting thing on every holiday or birthday was definitely the food (I always loved eating). So I tried coming up with a delicious cake recipe for my flat mates birthday a month back.
ingredients:
- 220g flour
- 130g cocoa powder
- 2 tsp of baking soda
- vanilla sugar
- 250g powdered sugar
- 150g butter
- 100g of melted chocolate
- 0,5l of oat milk
- vegan whipped cream (I used a powder)
- 3 bananas
instructions:
- for the cake:
- mix all of the following ingredients in a mixing bowl until its a smooth dough:
- 220g flour
- 130g cocoa powder
- 2tsp of baking powder
- 1 tsp of vanilla sugar
- 100g powdered sugar
- 25-30g melted butter
- 225ml oat milk
- 100g melted chocolate
- grease the cake tin and fill it up with the dough
- bake the dough for 30 minutes with 180 degrees
- the cream:
- mix the powder for the vegan whipped cream with 200 ml of oat milk with a wist until it thickens a little
- separately mix 100g of butter with 150g powdered sugar for about 3 minutes with a hand mixer
- then add the whipped cream and mix with a hand mixer on high level
- if you want add a little bit of vanilla sugar or vanilla extract as well
- place the whipped cream in the fridge for 30 minutes
- the garnishing:
- if you used a wider cake tin like I did = place 2 cut bananas on the cake then add the cream on top and add another cut banana
- if your used a higher and smaller cake tin = cut the cake carefully in half and put some cream between the two parts
- be creative with decorating 🙂
