Veganmadeinthepanchocolatecake Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oven to 325 degrees. Add the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking soda and salt to an 8-by-8-inch square glass or metal baking dish. Whisk the mixture together until uniform in color. Use your fingers to break apart any lumps.
• Add 1 cup water along with the oil, vanilla extract and vinegar. Stir slowly with a fork or a whisk in small circles to blend. Mash, scrape and stir with a fork and spoon until the mixture becomes a smooth and uniform batter.
• Scrape the sides of the baking dish with a rubber spatula and spread the batter in an even layer. Sprinkle with chocolate chips, if using.
• Use a damp paper towel to wipe the edges of the baking dish clean. Carefully transfer the dish to the oven and bake until a toothpick inserted into the center of the batter comes out mostly clean, 28 to 33 minutes. (Instead of looking like you dipped the toothpick in chocolate frosting, it should look like it has some chocolate cake crumbs clinging to it.)
• Remove from the oven, let cool, then cut the cake into squares. If you're feeling fancy, this tastes good (and looks pretty) with some confectioners' sugar dusted on top.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease one 9x5 inch loaf pan.
• Sift together the flour, sugar, cocoa, baking soda and salt. Add the oil, vanilla, vinegar and water. Mix together until smooth.
• Pour into prepared pan and bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 45 minutes. Remove from oven and allow to cool.

Steps:

• Cake: Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Lightly brush two 8-inch round cake pans with oil; set aside.
• Sift flour, cocoa, baking soda, salt, and granulated sugar into a large bowl. In a small bowl, dissolve espresso powder in 2 cups warm water; whisk in oil and vanilla. Whisk wet ingredients into dry mixture until well incorporated. Quickly whisk in vinegar. Divide batter between prepared pans. Bake until a tester inserted into centers comes out clean, about 35 minutes. Let cool 10 minutes, then invert cakes onto a wire rack and let cool completely.
• Icing: in the bowl of a mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat margarine on medium speed until light and creamy, about 2 minutes. Add confectioners' sugar, espresso powder, soy creamer, and vanilla; beat until smooth, 30 seconds more. Beat in cooled chocolate; set aside.
• Trim tops of cakes flat. Place a cake layer on a cake plate. Spread 1 1/2 cups icing evenly over it (reserve remaining icing for another use). Top with second cake layer, cut-side down.
• Ganache: Place chocolate in a medium heatproof bowl. Bring golden syrup and soy creamer to a boil in a small saucepan over medium-high heat. Remove from heat and pour over chocolate. Let stand 2 minutes, then stir until smooth. Pour ganache over cake, allowing it to drip down sides. Let stand at room temperature until set, at least 15 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Grease two 8-inch round cake pans with oil or non-stick spray. Set aside.
• Make the cake. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda and salt.
• Into the bowl of a stand mixer or in another large bowl (to mix with a hand mixer), add the soy milk, oil, sugar, maple syrup, vinegar, and vanilla. Mix on medium speed for two minutes.
• Add half the dry ingredients and mix to blend. Add the remaining dry ingredients and mix at medium speed for 1 minute. The batter will be quite runny. Divide the batter between the two cake pans.
• Bake until the top springs back when you poke it and a toothpick inserted into the center comes back clean, 25 - 30 minutes. Remove the cake pans from the oven and place on wire racks to start cooling. After 10 minutes, run a butter knife around the edges of the cakes to loosen them from the side, then invert onto a wire rack, removing the cake pan. Let cake rounds cool completely, 30-45 minutes. To expedite the cooling process, you can place the cakes in the freezer for about 10 minutes for the fridge for 20.
• Meanwhile, make the frosting. In the clean stand mixer bowl affixed with a beater blade (or in a medium mixing bowl if you are using a hand mixer), add the vegan butter. If you're using the recommended brand (Melt) and it's room temperature, it should be very very soft. Add 3 tablespoons of the soy milk and beat until as incorporated as possible. Add the cocoa powder and mix until well combined and glossy. Mix in the vanilla extract. Add the powdered sugar 1 cup at a time, beating until incorporated after each addition. Once all the powdered sugar has been added, beat frosting at medium speed for about 1 minute until it has lightened up a bit and is a bit fluffier. If the frosting seems too soft to spread on the cake, add more powdered sugar, 1/2 cup at a time. If it's too stiff, add more soy milk, 1 teaspoon at a time, until the frosting is perfectly spreadable.
• Once the layers are cool, place the first layer on your cake plate. Add about 1/3 of the frosting to the top of the first layer and with a butter knife or offset spatula, smooth to the edges. Top with the second layer. Smooth a thin layer of frosting around the sides of the cake, then add another, thicker layer (the thinner layer first will help hold the crumbs in). Add the remaining frosting to the top of the cake and smooth with the knife or spatula, adding swoops and swirls how you see fit (or smoothing it all out - however you want, it's your cake!)
• Cut into slices, serve, and enjoy!

Steps:

• USE AN 8 INCH SQUARE GLASS BAKING PAN.
• Preheat oven to 325°F.
• Put into a square glass baking pan the flour, cocoa, sugar, salt, and baking soda.
• Mix slowly taking turns with a spoon and a fork. Mix until it is completely light brown. (Peek through the bottom of the GLASS pan).
• Make 4 dents with a spoon, 2 large and 2 small.
• Pour 1 cup of water into one large dent.
• Pour 1/3 Cup of oil into the other large dent.
• Pour 1 tsp of vinegar into a small dent.
• Pour 1 tsp of vanilla extract into another small dent.
• Start stirring (slowly) with A FORK.
• When it turns into batter mash it down with a fork (then scrape the bottom, stir and repeat the process a few times).
• Smooth out the cake.
• Put into the oven for 30 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Generously spray four 4-ounce disposable aluminum ramekins with nonstick cooking spray. Place the ramekins on a rimmed baking sheet.
• Sift together the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder and salt in a large mixing bowl. Whisk to combine.
• Pour the aquafaba into the bowl of an electric stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment. Beat on high speed until soft peaks form, 3 to 5 minutes.
• Add the chocolate chips and coconut oil to a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 30-second intervals, whisking in between each, until the chocolate and coconut oil are melted and the mixture is smooth, about 1 minute. Cool for 1 minute, then stir into the flour mixture. Fold in the whipped aquafaba with a rubber spatula until combined.
• Fill the ramekins about halfway with the batter. Use your fingertips to create a well in the center. Pour 2 teaspoons of the tahini into each well. Cover the tahini with more batter by creating a small disc of batter and gently placing it on top. The goal is to hide the tahini but not press it out of the well.
• Bake until the cake edges are firm and the tops are slightly cracked but set, 20 to 25 minutes. Invert onto serving plates, garnish with a sprinkle of flaky sea salt and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 190C/170C fan/gas 5. Grease the base and sides of 2 x 20cm sandwich tins with dairy-free spread, then line the bases with baking parchment.
• Put the dairy-free milk in a jug and add the vinegar - it will split but don't worry. Put all of the other cake ingredients into a large bowl, pour over the milk mixture and beat well until smooth. Divide the mixture between the prepared tins and bake for 25-30 mins or until a skewer inserted into the middle of the cakes comes out cleanly. Leave to cool in the tins for 10mins then turn out onto wire racks to cool completely.
• To make the buttercream, put the chocolate into a heatproof bowl and melt in the microwave, stirring every 30 seconds. Leave the melted chocolate to cool for 5 minutes. Beat the dairy-free spread and icing sugar together with a wooden spoon then sift in the cocoa powder with a pinch of salt. Pour in the melted chocolate and dairy-free milk and keep mixing until smooth.
• Sandwich the two cooled sponges together with half of the buttercream then pile the rest on top and down the sides. Decorate with the fresh fruit.

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Butter and line a 900g loaf tin. Beat together the vegan butter block, sugar and lemon zest until combined. Add the plant milk and beat slowly to combine. Add the ground almonds, flour and baking powder, along with the grated courgette, and stir to combine. Spoon the batter into the prepared tin (it will be quite thick) and level the top. Bake for 55-60 mins until a skewer inserted into the middle comes out clean. Transfer to a wire rack and leave to cool completely in the tin.
• To make the icing, sieve the icing sugar into a bowl and add 1 tbsp of the lemon juice and stir to combine. Add a little more lemon juice if needed, ½ tsp at a time, until you reach your desired consistency. Remove the cake from the tin and drizzle over the icing, allowing it to drip down the sides. Leave to set for 20-30 mins. Cut into slices to serve.
