• Melt unsweetened chocolate in top of a double boiler over simmering water, stirring frequently and scraping down the sides with a rubber spatula to avoid scorching. Set aside to cool slightly, about 5 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line two 9-inch cake pans with waxed paper.
• Sift cake flour, baking soda, and salt together in a large bowl.
• Whisk sugar, water, vegetable oil, vanilla extract, and balsamic vinegar in a large bowl until well-combined. Stir in half of the sifted flour mixture. Fold in melted chocolate. Stir in remaining sifted flour mixture. Beat with an electric mixer on medium speed until batter is smooth, about 2 minutes. Divide batter between cake pans.
• Bake in the preheated oven until toothpicks inserted in the centers come out clean, about 45 minutes. Cool in the pans, 5 minutes. Invert cakes onto wire rack and let cool completely before frosting, about 1 hour.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375˚F (190˚C).
• Add flour, sugar, cocoa powder, salt, and baking powder to a large mixing bowl and whisk to thoroughly incorporate, making sure there are no lumps.
• Once, the dry ingredients are thoroughly mixed together, create a small well in the middle and add in the coconut oil, maple syrup, and almond milk. Continue to whisk until a thick and lumpy batter forms.
• Grease the inside of two 9-inch (23 cm) cake tins with coconut oil or nonstick baking spray, and add about 1 teaspoon of cocoa powder to dust the inside of the pan.
• Pour half of the batter into each of the cake tins.
• Bake them for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
• Once cakes are finished, transfer them or a cooking rack for 5-10 minutes before removing the finished cakes from their tins.
• While the cakes cool prepare the frosting. Add vegan butter, powdered sugar, cocoa powder, and vanilla extract to a mixing bowl and whisk using an electric hand-mixer until a smooth and glossy frosting forms.
• Add almond milk and continue to mix until incorporated.
• Choose which of the cakes will be the bottom of your finished cake and carefully level it off.
• Place a small amount of the icing in the middle of your serving dish and place the cake on top.
• Using about a cup (about 115g) of the icing, generously coat the bottom layer of the cake using a spatula.
• Once the icing is spread out evenly, place the second cake on top and continue to frost the cake using the rest of the icing.
• Refrigerate the cake for 30 minutes before serving.
• Slice and serve.
• Enjoy!
