This post is also available in german/deutsch
Hello Friends! Ready for a delicious piece of vegan chocolate cake? Perfect, then I have just the right thing for you. Moist chocolate cake with a fluffy chocolate ganache made from only 3 ingredients. Vegan Chocolate Cake

Also the vegan chocolate cake is done quickly. Mix the dry ingredients with the moist ingredients and pour the dough into a small greased springform (18cm). Bake for 45 minutes or until a skewer comes out clean. Allow to cool in the tin for 10 Minutes before turning out onto wire racks to cool completely. Then you cut the cake in the middle with a nylon thread. So I have two equally thick slices. It´s the easiest way to cut the cake. (See Gif and pictures )

Frosting

For this you put the butter, heavy cream, powdered sugar and cacao powder in a mixing bowl and mix until fluffy and cream. Cover the bottom of the cake with chocolate cream frosting. Put the second cake slices on top and spread with the remaining cream. As a decoration you can sprinkle the cake with grated chocolate or garnish it with berries.

You can also double the ingredients if several guests come. The cream is enough for a 24 cm cake.
