Ingredients 
 

Vegan Mocha Chocolate Cake

Wet:

  • 1/4 cup oil, I used organic canola
  • 2 Tbsp agave or maple syrup
  • 1/4 cup vanilla almond milk , or non dairy milk plus a few drops of vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1.5 Tablespoon instant coffee, or substitute the 1/4 cup water above with 1/4 cup brewed coffee- preferably strong
  • 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
  • 1/4 cup raw sugar
  • 2 Tablespoons flaxmeal
  • 1/3 cup dark chocolate or semi sweet chocolate chips

Dry:

  • 2 tablespoon cocoa powder
  • 1/2 cup Wheat flour
  • 1/2 cup Oat flour, Use wheat flour or AP flour for less crumbly cake
  • 1/4 cup raw Cashew ground
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/8 tsp salt

Vegan Salted Caramel Sauce:

  • 1/4 cup raw sugar ground, you can also use other sweeteners like coconut sugar
  • 1 teaspoon virgin coconut oil, melted
  • 1/8 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1 Tablespoon coconut milk or almond milk or non dairy milk

Instructions 

Vegan Mocha Chocolate Cake

  • Preheat the oven to 365 degrees F.
  • In a bowl, add all of the wet ingredients, mix and warm in the microwave, or on stove top until just about hot to touch.
  • Add in the chocolate chips or bar, and whisk until chocolate melts and is well combined.
  • Let sit for 2 minutes.
  • In another bowl, mix all the flours, cocoa powder, baking powder and salt. whisk well.
  • Add the dry to the wet.
  • Mix until just about combined.
  • Pour batter in greased or parchment lined 8 inch pan.
  • Bake at preheated 365 degrees F for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick from the center comes out clean.
  • Cool for a few minutes, then remove from pan. Cool completely before slicing.
  • Before serving drizzle liberally with warm salted caramel!

Vegan Salted Caramel Sauce: inspired by Chef Chloe's recipe

  • In a small saucepan, over medium heat, combine all ingredients( 1 Tablespoon coconut milk). stirring frequently. Once mixture comes together, increase heat to medium-high for 1 to 2 minutes, until it begins to boil and the bubbles move into the center of the caramel and it thickens just a little(a few more seconds). Remove from heat and let cool. Then pour this insanely delicious caramel over everything!

I think I am getting a chocolate addiction also because of the new Molten Chocolate Cakery in town.
They have this amazingly gooey, vegan dark chocolate, Take-n-Bake Molten Chocolate cake in a mason jar. Just take the lid off, bake and serve/eat. They also have vegan salted caramel in a jar, which is what I have been drizzling on my mocha cakes, and adding a dollop to the the batter some days too.

    just wanted to say thanks for all the great recipes.
    I can always rely on your recipes to turn out well, be tasty and expertly written.
    make a cake from another blog ( banana …) the recipe was written soo pooly dont think she ever made it.
    ingredients out of order ( cocoa for a marble cake was listed in top three tho you add it close to end) timing was off for baking.
    mix a cake batter with a whisk? not possible!
    so, came back to you.. always happy with results.
    cant wait to try mocha and marble.
    my husband remembers marble cake this his grandmother made and i haven’t been able to replicate it.. yet…

    Hello,
    My grandma asked for the recipe after I baked it for her. She wants to surprise her scrabble-friends with a vegan cake. So it’s actually more like a six stars cake! Thank you for helping me spreading veganism hehe!

    Can this be made with whole wheat flour?

    1. Richa says:

      Yes. You’ll need a few tbsp less flour. Also add jn another 2 tbsp oil
