I love to make this Vegan Mexican Chocolate Cake for special occasions like birthdays or anniversary dinners. It is moist and fudgy with a hint of spicy cinnamon and a little kick of heat from cayenne pepper – just like Mexican hot chocolate!
As well as tasting absolutely delicious, this cake is super simple to make too. Combine all dry ingredients in a bowl. Add the wet ingredients and mix until just combined. Bake in a preheated oven until a skewer comes out clean. Cool slightly before sprinkling with powdered sugar. Enjoy!

Pour the mixture into the cake pan.
Bake for 30 minutes in the preheated oven until a skewer inserted comes out clean.
Sprinkle with powdered sugar before serving.

I used brown sugar and even added some almond nuts to mine :)
Long time to make this and kinda expensive but worth it If you have the patiences cause it was not 35 minutes for me.
When I first saw this I didn't think it would taste like anything but it actually has a strong chocolate flavor which makes me super happy.
