Instructions

For the flax eggs

  • Place the flaxseed in a bowl. If it is not ground, grind it using a kitchen robot or a food processor.

  • As soon as it thickens, your flax eggs are ready. Set it aside.

For the Cake

  • Add the brown sugar and stir it.
  • Sift the flour, the cornstarch, and the raw cocoa powder.

  • Remove from oven and let cool.

For the Sauce

  • In a saucepan, place the chocolate bar broken into pieces over medium/low heat.
  • Add the coconut milk and let it boil, stirring constantly.
  • Be careful that the sauce doesn't burn.
  • Serve.

Notes

You can make vegans cakes in several ways. This is just my suggestion.
Use baking soda if you want a bigger reaction with the vinegar (more bubbles and air coming in).
If you use ingredients such as carrots, spinach, and zucchini, add them to the liquid ingredients.
For the ones who don't intend to bake a vegan cake, you just have to replace the flax eggs with eggs.
Make a sauce melting a chocolate bar, if you want a crunchie and harder texture.
You can fill the cake if you want to.
