  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ½ cup shredded coconut (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon cocoa powder

  • 1¼ cups flour
  • 2¼ teaspoons baking powder (10 g)

Ganache

  • ½ cup heavy cream
  • 3½ oz. dark chocolate (100 g)
  • 1 tablespoon oil
  • ½ teaspoon honey

Instructions

Cake:

  • Preheat the oven at 325°F (160°C)
  • Add the eggs and sugar into the mixer bowl
  • Beat on the highest speed until fluffy
  • Lower the mixer speed, then add the oil, milk, heavy cream, and vanilla extract
  • Add in the shredded coconut (optional)
  • Pour in the chocolate milk mix with the cacao powder stirred in
  • Add the flour and baking powder and allow to mix well
  • Pour the batter into a baking pan
  • Tap the baking pan on the countertop for the mixture to flatten evenly and to get rid of any air pockets
  • Convection bake for about 40 minutes

Ganache:

  • Heat the heavy cream, then melt the chocolate in it
  • Add oil and honey
  • Mix well and allow to cool for a bit
  • Take the cake out of the oven and tap it on the countertop
  • Slice it into pieces while still hot
  • Pour the chocolate ganache over the cake immediately after slicing it (while still in the pan)
  • Serve and enjoy

Tips

If you’re not a big fan of shredded coconut, just leave it out. However, in this case, add an extra quarter cup of flour.
Plus, to make this delicious chocolate cake non-dairy, all you have to do is omit the heavy cream from the ganache. Instead, use non-dairy whipping cream (like Rich’s topping).
As for the cake, replace the heavy cream and milk with one of the following options:
  • One cup of non-dairy whipping cream
  • One cup of orange juice
  • Half a cup of water plus half a cup of non-dairy whipping cream
