A chocolate cake to celebrate another wonderful trip around the sun

Greetings, dear friends and lovers of vegan food. First of all, I would like to wish a happy birthday to this wonderful community, which is celebrating its fourth anniversary. I am celebrating this milestone threefold, because on August 30, I celebrated my birthday at Hive, which was also my fourth anniversary, and on September 10, I celebrated another year of life. I am happy to be part of this community that warmly welcomed me and made me feel at home. I extend my congratulations to the entire team at @plantpoeronhive. If you want to participate in the New PLANT BASED challenge: A birthday cake! (Fourth anniversary), here is the link.

I couldn't miss celebrating with you, as I've mentioned before, I don't have an oven, so I used the microwave and here I am with my humble little cake dedicated to you.

Ingredients

- 1 ½ cups self-rising wheat flour

- 30 grams of cocoa powder

- 100 grams of sugar

- 1 teaspoon baking powder

- 1 teaspoon baking soda

- ½ cup soybean oil

- 1 ½ cups oat milk

For decoration:

- Chocolate sprinkles (2 tablespoons)

- 2 strawberries

- A birthday candle with its base

- Number 4 made of foam

Preparation

1.- Place the dry ingredients in a bowl, first the chocolate, then the sugar and wheat flour. Mix together.

2.-. We continue with the baking powder and baking soda. We mix them together.

3.- In another bowl, place the wet ingredients, oat milk, and oil, and mix. At this point, I'm going to pause. I would have liked to use coconut milk, which I love, but I didn't have any on hand. However, I did have some packets of oats. I made this milk myself. Just soak 3 tablespoons of rolled oats in two cups of water for 30 minutes, then blend and strain. There are other ways to make it, but this version is very simple and doesn't require cooking.

4.- Combine the dry ingredients with the wet ingredients. Gradually add the oat milk mixed with the oil to the dry ingredients, stirring constantly. It will be ready when the ingredients are well combined and there are no lumps.

5.- Grease the mold with oil and then sprinkle with flour. I used a glass mold that I can put in the microwave so I can bake it.

6.- Pour the mixture into the mold and bake for 5 minutes. The time will depend on the power of the microwave. Check using a toothpick; if it comes out clean, it means that your cake is ready.

7.- We decorate the cake with chocolate sprinkles and strawberries. We also add the candle and the number 4.

Happy birthday, dear @plantpoweronhive community! My best wishes always.

I invite @dlizara to participate. I hope you liked it. See you next time.

Hi @hylene74!

I'm here, a little late, but sure, to thank you for your beautiful gift to the community and, at the same time, to extend congratulations, both for your anniversary at Hive and for your birthday. I sincerely hope that God grants you much health, happiness, and prosperity in this new cycle, and that you have many wonderful experiences in your life.

I'm so surprised at how beautiful and delicious this cake looks, even though you made it in the microwave; the technique you used is truly brilliant. Also, combining chocolate with strawberries is a wonderful choice, as both flavors complement each other perfectly.

We are so grateful that you are part of our vegan family, and that you choose Plant Power (Vegan) to share your wonderful vegan recipes.

Hugs!

Hola @hylene74

Por aquí estoy, algo tarde, pero segura, para agradecer tu hermoso regalo para la comunidad y a la vez, extenderte felicitaciones, tanto por tu aniversario en Hive como por tu cumpleaños. Espero de todo corazón que Dios te dé mucha salud, felicidad y prosperidad en este nuevo ciclo, y que tengas muchas experiencias bonitas en tu vida.

Estoy súper sorprendida de lo bonito y delicioso que se ve este pastel, aún cuando lo hayas hecho en microondas, es realmente genial la técnica que usaste. Por otra parte, el que hayas combinado chocolate con fresas es una estupenda elección, ya que ambos sabores se complementan a la perfección.

Estamos muy agradecidos de que seas parte de nuestra familia vegana, y de que elijas Plant Power (Vegan), para compartir tus estupendas recetas veganas.

¡Abrazos!

Muchas gracias por ese comentario tan inspirador y lleno de piropos para mi pequeño pastel. El microondas me ha servido para ciertos postres y algunas recetas. Tiene sus limitaciones, pero no podía faltar a esta celebración tan importante. Son 4 años y contando, qie sigan los éxitos. Saludos.
