Cherry chocolate cake *Black forest

Hi Friends!
Now that cherry blossom season is over, you can guess what will be coming next.. CHERRIES! I think chocolate and cherries make the best cake, don’t you agree?

Ingredients

for the chocolate cake
I did those ingredients twice separately but you can double the pattern and make one cake

1 Cup flour
1/2 Cup cacao powder
1/4 Cup coconut sugar
1/2 Teaspoon baking powder
pinch salt
1 Teaspoon baking soda
80ml cocount oil
150ml vegan quark (used Alpro go on)
1 Teaspoon apple cider vinegar
240ml Plant-based milk
1 Teaspoon vanilla extract

1. Mix flour, cacao, sugar and baking powder together in one bowl
2. In a small bowl place plant-based milk and apple cider vinegar and leave a side to activate 5-10min
3. in a 3rd bowl place the quark and baking soda and set a side to activate 5-10min
4. When ready, mix oil, vanilla extract and then add the activated plant-based milk and quark and mix
5. add the rest of the ingredients slowly till well combined
6. pour the pattern in greased cake pan
7. place in the oven on 180C for 35-40min
8. When ready put the cake a side to cool down
9. once it completely cooled you can cut the cake into half
10. Between the cake pieces put seedless cherries(can also cut in half) and vegan whipped cream
11. depending on the size of the cake pan but you might need 350-400ml of whipped cream (Used Alpro) and (300-500g of cherries depending on their size :))
12. when done, place in the fridge for couple of hours before serving

Hope you found this recipe east to make and hope you will enjoy it 🙂
