Yum. Yum. Yum. I think maybe I need to write a cookbook for all my Health Nuts. If I did, a cake recipe similar to this would definitely be in there!

I love chocolate and I’m a vegan so this is right up my alley.

If you’ve never made yourself chocolate avocado pudding for dinner, you’re missing out. The frosting in this gem is similar to that so if you have, you already know you’re going to love it!

Oh and check out this video for a different vegan chocolate cake recipe. As always, if you make this cake, post a pic and let us know how it turned out!

From our friends at Vegan Enthusiasts:

Ingredients:

CAKE
3 cups all-purpose flour
5 tablespoons dark chocolate cocoa powder
2 teaspoons baking powder
2 teaspoons baking soda
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 cup canola oil (I’d try coconut oil)
1 ripe avocado, mashed until smooth
2 cups water
2 tablespoons white vinegar
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 cups sugar (you could also use coconut sugar)
FROSTING
2 ripe avocados, mashed until smooth
2 cups confectioner’s sugar
5 tablespoons dark chocolate cocoa powder

Prep:

  • Preheat oven to 350. Grease and flour two 9” round cake pans.
  • In a large bowl, whisk first five ingredients.
  • In another bowl, whisk oil and next four ingredients. Once combined, add sugar.
  • Pour wet avocado mixture into flour mixture and mix well until smooth. Divide batter evenly between cake pans. Bake cake in two 9” round cake pans, checking for doneness after 30 minutes.
  • To frost, allow cakes to cool in pans, then turn out after 15 minutes to cool completely. Add a layer of frosting on first cake layer, then top with second cake layer. Add remaining frosting to the top of cake.

Enjoy Health Nuts!
