Ingredients
- 3 cups brown sugar
- 1.5 cups oil
- 3.5 cups soy milk
- 1.5 cups gluten-free cocoa powder
- 3.5 cups gluten-free flour (an all-purpose gluten-free blend works best)
- Gluten-free baking powder
Instructions
- 1
Preheat the oven to 160°C.
- 2
In a large bowl, whisk together the brown sugar, oil and soy milk until smooth.
- 3
Add the cocoa, flour and baking powder and whisk well until lump-free — don't overmix, or the cake will turn out dense.
- 4
Bake in a parchment-lined 28 cm round pan, two 20 cm pans, or a large disposable A4 tray.
- 5
Bake for about 50 minutes at 160°C, until a toothpick comes out dry with a few moist crumbs.
- 6
Cool completely. Top with dairy-free chocolate ganache (250 ml non-dairy cream + 150 g gluten-free dairy-free dark chocolate) or serve as is.
