Delicious Homemade CAKE

Delicious!

CAKE RECIPE:

• 2 cups flour (I used Hodgson Mills unbleached, unenriched, gail safe flour)
• 3 tsp. baking powder
• pinch sea salt
• 1/2 cup agave nectar
• 1 tsp. pure vanilla extract
• 1/4 cup canola oil (or any for binding)
• 3/4 cup water

Mix together well. Pour into greased 9 inch cake pan. Bake for 27 minutes at 350 degrees F.
This recipe has no eggs, so it's vegan friendly if that helps... Can double the recipe to make 2 round cakes for a layered cake.

CHOCOLATE GANACHE FROSTING:

For this I finely chopped an 85% dark chocolate bar (these have very little sugar and are pretty bitter). Meanwhile, I boiled 1 cup heavy cream in a small saucepan. When the cream was bubbling, I poured it over the chocolate chunks... I stirred this together. This mixture smoothed out a bit but didn't look good enough to top my cake. I chilled this concoction for about 15 minutes. Once chilled, I added 1 TBSP. agave nectar and 1 tsp. vanilla and whipped it up like I would whipping cream. What a great idea!
