A Vegan Dessert Classic
This recipe relies on a simple chemical reaction between baking soda and vinegar to create an ultra-light crumb, while hot coffee blooms the cocoa powder for deep flavor.
Ingredients:
- All-purpose flour (or GF 1:1 blend)
- Cocoa powder (Dutch-processed is best)
- Sugar
- Baking Soda & Salt
- Oil (for moisture)
- Vinegar (Apple Cider or White)
- Hot Coffee
Simply whisk the dry ingredients, add the wet, and bake! The result is a dark, fudgy sponge that pairs perfectly with a ganache or buttercream.
