I love cake! I've never really tried to make a vegan cake - I always thought it'd be kinda gross. But, since I'm determined to make delicious vegan food, I decided to give it a try. I used a recipe from the book: The Joy of Cooking Cocoa Devil's Food Cake.
I made the following alterations: Coconut oil instead of butter, flax seed instead of eggs, soy youghurt instead of dairy; half the sugar and extra cocoa powder. I also added a bit of baking powder to make sure it raised well.
While it's baking, I made the glaze. It's composed of dark chocolate, Earth Balance, corn syrup and Silk creamer.
Pour the glaze over the cake and garnish with mint and pomegranate.
