Ingredients
Scale
- 1½ cups all-purpose flour
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 1/4 cup cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon white vinegar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 6 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1 cup cooled brewed coffee (or water)
- 1 tub ready made frosting
- 2/3 cup peanut butter powder
- 2 Dark Chocolate PB Cups, chopped
Instructions
- Preheat to 375°F. Grease an 8-inch round or square pan.
- Mix the flour, cocoa, baking soda, salt and the sugar in the pan. Make 3 indentions in the mixture. 2 small and one large. Pour the vanilla and vinegar into the smaller holes, and oil into the larger hole.
- Pour the coffee over the entire mixture and stir the ingredients until well blended.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the top is set but springy. Allow the cake to completely cool. In a standing mixer whip up the ready made icing with the peanut butter powder. Use 1 1/2 tubs of vegan icing for a thick layer! If the icing appears too thick, simply add 1 tsp of almond milk at a time to achieve desired texture. Garnish with dark chocolate peanut butter cups.
Notes
You can use actual peanut butter for the icing, but you get more pb flavor with the powder and you may need to add powdered sugar to thicken it with the real pb.
