Vegan Chocolate Chilli Cake

My husband has been a vegan for the past 22 years, so I have had to learn how to cook a lot of vegan food.
He is a chocoholic - not long ago I made 50 vegan chocolate truffles - left them in the fridge, went to work - by the time I got home, the whole lot was eaten .. By him!!!!  And he has requested more ..

This is one of his favourite chocolate cakes that I make for him, as he loves spice.

It is delicious and it is very chocolatey but leaves that spicy tingle at the back of your throat.


INGREDIENTS

3 Cups of plain flour
2 Cups of caster sugar
1/2 cup Cocoa
2 tsp Baking soda
2 tsp ground cinnamon
2 tsp cayenne
1 tsp chilli powder
1 tsp vinegar
10 tbs vegetable oil
2 Cups of water

METHOD

Put the dry ingredients in a large bowl and give it a bit of a mix.
Gradually add all the wet ingredients, mixing until smooth.

Tip into a well greased spring cake pan and bake at 180 C for 30 minutes.

Decorate with some vegan ganache or vegan buttercream
