Key Ingredients
Flour: The trick to a well risen eggless cakes is self raising flour, in combination with levelling agents (trust me!)
Dairy free Butter Milk: I recommend using milk with at least 2% fat content. Making a dairy free buttermilk is super easy - just combine milk and vinegar!
Yoghurt - this acts as our egg replacer, helping to bind the ingredients together and create that ulta moist texture.
Dark Chocolate – Dark chocolate chips, baking chocolate, or good-quality chocolate bars can be used just made sure that the chocolate is at least 50% cocoa solids.
Swaps and Substitutions:
Dairy Free Double Cream - Dairy alternatives such as heavy cream and double cream can be used in both the cake and the frosting.
Unsalted Dairy Free Butter – Dairy alternatives can be used, as well as salted butter.
Oil - any flavourless oil can be used in this recipe. You could also use olive oil however this will change the taste of the cake.
