Tort vegan de ciocolata

Anul acesta de Craciun am ales sa fac, pe langa cozonaci, si un demential tort vegan de ciocolata :) Consistenta densa, aroma intensa de ciocolata, muulta savoare, e desertul ideal pentru chocoholici :)

Ingrediente (8-10 portii):

• 225g faina alba
• 75g cacao degresata
• 300g zahar brun nerafinat
• 2 lgt cafea instant
• 1 praf de sare
• 1/2 lgt praf de copt
• 1/2 lgt bicarbonat de sodiu
• 300ml apa fierbinte
• 75g ulei de cocos
• 2 lgt otet din cidru de mere
• decor: cacao pudra, fructe proaspete

Amestecam intr-un bol ingredientele uscate: faina, pudra de cacao, bicarbonatul, praful de copt, cafeaua instant si un praf de sare. In alt bol amestecam bine apa fierbinte cu zaharul, uleiul de cocos si otetul. Combinam cele 2 amestecuri si turnam compozitia intr-o forma rotunda cu funt detasabil (diametru de 18cmpentru o forma cu diametru mai mare, reducem proportional timpul de coacere, testand tortul cu scobitoarea.) unsa cu ulei si tapetata cu hartie de copt.

Coacem prajtura aprox 40-45 de min in cuptorul preincalzit la 180C, pana aproape trece testul scobitorii, adica aceasta nu iese tocmai curata din centrul tortului, ci cu cateva firimituri lipicioase :) Spun asta pentru ca ideea e ca centrul tortului sa aiba o consistenta moale, gumoasa, ca la lava cake :D Dupa ce se raceste, scoatem tortul din forma, il pudram cu cacao si il decoram cu fructe. Sarbatori fericite!

ENGLISH VERSION

This year for Christmas, I am making the most amazing vegan chocolate cake :D Rich consistency, super intense chocolate flavor, the perfect dessert for chocoholics :)

Ingredients (8-10 servings):

• 225 g whole puropose flour
• 75 g low fat cocoa
• 300 g brown unrefined sugar
• 2 tsp espresso powder
• 1 pinch of salt
• 1/2 tsp baking powder
• 1/2 tsp baking soda
• 300 ml hot water
• 75 g coconut oil
• 2 tsp apple cider vinegar
• topping: cocoa, fresh fruit

Mix the dry ingredients in a bowl: flour, cocoa, baking soda, baking powder, coffee and a pinch of salt. In another bowl mix the hot water, coconut oil and vinegar. Combine the 2 mixture and pour the dough in a round pan greased with oil and lined with baking paper (18 cmfor a larger cake pan reduce t the baking time and test with a skewer diameter).

Bake the cake for approx 40-45 min, until a skewer comes almost clean from the center. I am saying this because the deal is not to bake the cake completely, the center must remain a little soft and gooey, like lava cake center :) After it cools a little, remove from the pan, powder with cocoa and decorate with fruit. Merry Christmas! :)
