Steps

Read instructions and get ready to cook

1
Preheat the oven

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease two 9-inch round cake pans and line the bottoms with parchment paper.

2
Mix the dry ingredients

In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.

3
Mix the wet ingredients

In a separate bowl, whisk together the sugar, apple cider vinegar, vanilla extract, vegetable oil, and water until well combined.

4
Combine wet and dry ingredients

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and whisk until just combined, being careful not to overmix.

5
Bake the cakes

Divide the batter evenly between the prepared cake pans. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let the cakes cool in the pans for 10 minutes, then remove them from the pans and cool completely on a wire rack.

6
Prepare the frosting

In a large bowl, whisk together the coconut milk and powdered sugar until smooth and creamy. Stir in the coconut flakes.

7
Assemble the cake

Place one cake layer on a serving plate and spread a generous amount of frosting on top. Place the second cake layer on top and spread the remaining frosting over the top and sides of the cake.

8
Serve and enjoy

Serve the vegan chocolate cake with coconut frosting at room temperature. Enjoy this delicious plant-based dessert!
