Dairy Free Chocolate Cake

Dairy Free Chocolate Cake

This recipe is great for allergy sufferers and is surprisingly delicious, even without eggs or milk.

6 dl flour

5 dl sugar

6 tablespoons cocoa

2 teaspoons baking soda

1 teaspoon salt

1 and 1/4 dl vegetable oil (125 g)

2 teaspoons vanilla extract

2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar or white vinegar

4 dl water

Mix everything together and bake at 180°C. I always test the cake with a toothpick to know when it’s done. It doesn't require a long baking time; I think I baked it for 25-30 minutes.

Do not skip the vinegar, as it helps the cake rise, which you would otherwise get from eggs.

Frosting:

100 g margarine

200-300 g powdered sugar

1-2 tablespoons cocoa

1-3 tablespoons brewed coffee

Whip together; the coffee is used to thin the frosting until the desired consistency is achieved.
