Easy Vegan Recipes: How to make vegan chocolate cake
Niki Webster of Rebel Recipes shares her ultimate crowd pleaser
I love chocolate cake, and this one ticks all the boxes as it’s richly chocolatey, soft and gooey. A perfect celebration cake for a birthday or just a weekend treat. The (not so) secret ingredients are ground almonds, dark chocolate and nut butter.
And let’s talk about the topping – a fluffy Biscoff-infused frosting dolloped thickly on top of the cake makes the whole experience more decadent. If you haven’t tried Biscoff spread, it’s made from speculoos cookies and has a brown sugar, butter and spice flavour – it is absolutely delicious and addictive, so be warned! If you love the taste of Biscoff like me, this is just perfect – that said, peanut or almond butter is just as good, if preferred.
I don’t think the cake will last that long, but if there are any leftovers make sure you store them in an airtight container to stop the cake drying out.
