Hi all,
Here is the recipe for the amazingly decadent vegan chocolate cake from Winter Seminar!

Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups all purpose flour
1 cup sugar
1/4 cup cocoa powder
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1/3 cup vegetable oil
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 tsp distilled white vinegar
1 cup water

Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly grease one 9"x5" pan.
2. Sift together the flour, sugar, cocoa, baking soda, and salt. Add the oil, vanilla, vinegar, and water. Mix together until smooth.
3. Pour into prepared pan and bake for 45 minutes. Remove from oven and allow to cool.

*make 2 cakes and fill the middle with rice mellow and berries*
And the chocolate frosting...

1 cup vegan margerine
4 cups icing sugar
2 Tbsp vanilla extract
1/4 cup soymilk
1/2 cup cocoa powder
a dash of salt

Mix everything together. If it's too thin, add sugar; if it's too thick, add soymilk.
