- Meanwhile, make the frosting. To a large bowl, add the butter, sift in the cacao powder, and add the vanilla, and mix with an electric or hand mixer until smooth and creamy. - Alternate between adding sifted powdered sugar and plant-based milk to the bowl, until well combined. - Using a spatula, fold in the melted chocolate, make sure to let it cool off a little bit before adding.
- Once your cake is done baking, let it cool off for 10 minutes in the cake pan before transferring to a cooling rack to let it cool off completely. - If you like, you can level your cake with a serrated knife to create a flat surface for stacking the cakes on top of each other.
