Ingredients

DRY INGREDIENTS

WET INGREDIENTS

  • 1 cup Oil
  • cup Vegan Milk
  • 1 cup Sugar + 1 tablespoon Brown sugar

CHOCOLATE GANACHE

  • 8 ounces Semi-Sweet Chocolate morsels
  • ½ cup Heavy cream

Instructions

  •  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 first
    PROTIP –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 !!

Notes

 
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.

Few other tips to consider!
