How to Make Vegan Raspberry Blackout Cake With Ganache Y Frosting

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together water, oil, apple cider vinegar, and vanilla extract.
  4. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Divide batter evenly between the prepared cake pans.
  6. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  7. Let cakes cool in pans for 10 minutes before inverting onto a wire rack to cool completely.
  8. While cakes are cooling, prepare the raspberry filling: gently mash half of the raspberries and mix them with the vegan chocolate chips.
  9. Once cakes are completely cool, frost the bottom layer with half the raspberry mixture.
  10. Top with the second cake layer and frost the entire cake with the ganache: Melt vegan butter and heavy cream, add powdered sugar and mix until smooth.
  11. Decorate with remaining fresh raspberries.
