Ingredients
- 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 0.5 cup cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 0.25 cup vegetable oil
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 0.75 cup vegan chocolate chips
- 0.25 cup maple syrup
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease an 8-inch (20 cm) round cake pan and line the bottom with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Whisk to combine thoroughly.
Step 3
In another bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar, almond milk, vegetable oil, apple cider vinegar, and vanilla extract until well combined.
Step 4
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring gently until you have a smooth batter.
Step 5
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and spread evenly.
Step 6
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Step 7
While the cake is baking, prepare the fudge topping. In a small saucepan, melt the vegan chocolate chips with maple syrup over low heat, stirring constantly until smooth.
Step 8
Once the cake is done, remove it from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 9
Pour the melted chocolate fudge over the cooled cake, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
Step 10
Let the chocolate fudge set for a few minutes before slicing. Serve and enjoy!
