Triple Chocolate Cherry Cake
You guys. Stop what you’re doing and make this cake right now. It’s fucking amazing. I mean, what’s not to love? There’s chocolate cake, cherry filling, dark chocolate frosting, and chocolate chips.
For The Cake:
I used this chocolate cake recipe from one of my favorite food bloggers, The Tolerant Vegan. Everything this lady makes is pure gold.
Dark Chocolate Frosting:
- 1 pound powdered sugar
- 3/4 cup vegan margarine, softened
- 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 2 T. strong coffee
- 2 cups cocoa powder
- 2 tsp. vanilla extract
I’m sure there’s a proper method for making frosting, but I just threw everything in my Kitchen Aid and beat it till it looked like frosting. If it’s too dry you can add a touch more coffee.
For The Filling:
- 1 can of cherry pie filling
Rinse the majority of that goopy shit off and put it between the cake layers. After you’ve frosted the bottom one, but before you add the top one. You get the idea. (If you don’t you should remove yourself from the kitchen. I’m serious.)
After you’ve frosted the entire cake, throw about a cups worth of mini chocolate chips on it.
