Vegan Strawberry and Chocolate Cake


For yet another hallway dinner, I opted to go through a really quick cake recipe. One of my hallway mates had recently decided to try veganism, so I went for this basic cake recipe I've been using. I added in some frozen strawberries I stewed and cooled into the batter,


I actually wanted to top it with a light ganache, but the only chocolate I had on hand contained milk. So I tried making some kind of vegan frosting by mixing random quantities of cocoa powder, icing sugar, and hot water until reaching a frosting consistency.


Unfortunately, I didn't think what would happen to the frosting after it cooled... it became pretty sticky but apparently people still liked it. Also unintended, the chocolate flavor came out so much stronger than the strawberry...
