WET INGREDIENTS
- 1 cup Oil
- 1½ cup Vegan Milk
- 1 cup Sugar + 1 tablespoon Brown sugar
CHOCOLATE GANACHE
- 8 ounces Semi-Sweet Chocolate morsels
- ½ cup Heavy cream
Sift dry ingredients together. Sifting aerates the flour, and that creates a light, airy and soft cake. Mix the dry ingredients with a spatula until combined.
To the same bowl (dry ingredients) add sugar and milk.
Pour in oil. The batter will be very runny.
Grease a microwavable bowl. Use a ceramic bowl for better results.
Pour the batter in the greased bowl. Make sure the batter is half-filled as there should be room left for the cake to rise. Gently tap the cake bowl on the counter to release the trapped bubbles.
Time to cook the cake. Place your bowl in the center of the microwave.
Set the timer to 7 minutes on HIGH (100%) power. Energy outputs per microwave oven vary wildly. So set for 6 minutes firstPROTIP –This cake will be cooked in a very different way. First, the sides will rise and form a crater/well in the center. Then the center part will rise. Don’t worry, the cake will be cooked beautifully. Allow the cake to rest in the bowl for at least 10 minutes before inverting onto a plate.PROTIP –To speed up the process place a wet towel underneath the warm bowl and once the bowl is comfortable to touch flip it over. Enjoy the cake as is or proceed to prepare the frosting/glaze.
CHOCOLATE GANACHE FOR THIS EGGLESS CAKE
Add the chocolate morsels to a bowl.
In a separate saucepan, heat cream until lukewarm.
Pour the cream over the chocolate and allow it to sit for about 6-7 minutes.
Whisk until all the chocolate has melted and mixed well with the cream. Allow the ganache to rest in the fridge for about 5 minutes.
Spread the ganache over chocolate cake and serve. Or cut a wedge, sit back, and enjoy – what a better way to indulge yourself !!
Can I store this cake in the fridge?
Sure you can refrigerate the finished cake. Finished cake will keep well in a covered container for about 3-4 days.
