S'mores Cake


It took some effort to come up with a cake whose decadence could match last week's  Caramel Coffee Cake, but I believe this S'mores cake fits the bill.

The Ingredients:
1 c flour
2/3 c sugar
1/3 c cocoa powder
3/4 t baking powder
1/2 t baking soda
1/2 t salt
1 c almond milk
1/3 c oil
1 t vanilla
4 graham cracker sheets, broken in small pieces

Topping:
2 graham cracker sheets, broken in pieces
about 1 c marshmallows (I used Dandies)

The Process:
  1. Preheat oven to 350.
  2. In a mixing bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, cocoa, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. (Sift if your cocoa has a lot of clumps.)
  3. Add almond milk, oil, and vanilla, and stir until combined.
  4. Fold in graham cracker pieces.
  5. Pour into an oiled 9-inch round cake pan, and bake about 26-28 minutes or until cooked through.  At this point, you can either let the cake cool and de-pan it onto a cookie sheet before proceeding, or if you're impatient as I was go ahead an top it and eat it hot out of the cake pan.
  6. Sprinkle marshmallows and graham cracker pieces on top of the cake, and put it under the broiler for a minute or two, turning if needed to brown the marshmallows evenly, keeping a close eye on it to make sure the marshmallows don't burn.
  7. Best served while topping is still warm.

  3. I've just discovered your blog via www.randomofo.com . I just wanted to tell you that I LOVE how you present your recipes. You make them simple, yet spectacular -- it gives me the feeling like I wouldn't have to work too hard to get delicious food by following your recipes, which is EXACTLY what I want to feel when I read recipes...and that's exactly what makes veganism more accessible to more people. So, thank you! I will add you to my blog reader and look forward to more of your simple, spectatular recipes. :)
