This chocolate raspberry cake is a delicious and simple dessert that requires just one bowl! No eggs, no milk, and no butter needed.
Ingredients
1 1/2 cups all purpose flour gluten free, if needed
1/4 cup cocoa powder
1 cup sugar * See notes
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
6 tablespoon oil canola oil, vegetable oil, or any neutral flavored oil.
1 cup water
For the frosting
1 cup chocolate frosting
1 cup raspberries fresh or frozen
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 180C/350F. Grease an 8-inch cake pan and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, add your dry ingredients and mix well. Add the vanilla extract, vinegar, oil, and water. Mix well, until combined.
Transfer the cake batter into the cake pan. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a skewer comes out clean. Let the cake cool completely, before frosting.
To frost the cake, add a thin layer of chocolate frosting. Next, place a single layer of raspberries on top, followed by a thicker layer of chocolate frosting. If making a layer cake, repeat the process.
