Equipment

  • Bundt pan

Ingredients
  

  • 1 ½ cup unbleached flour
  • ¾ cup cocoa powder
  • 1 cup light brown sugar
  • 1 tbsp instant espresso powder
  • ¾ tsp fine sea salt
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • ¼ tsp baking powder
  • ½ cup canola oil
  • ½ cup almond milk
  • ½ cup soft silken tofu
  • ¾ cup strong drip coffee
  • 1 ½ tsp pure vanilla extract
  • powdered sugar for dusting

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350°.
  • Lightly grease a 10’ Bundt pan and set aside.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together all dry ingredients. Create a well in the center of the dry ingredients and add the remaining ingredients.
  • Whisk together until the mixture is thoroughly combined and smooth, 3-4 minutes.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 30-40 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean.
  • Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 15-20 minutes. Remove from pan and transfer to a wire rack and let it cool completely.
  • Serve with a dusting of powdered sugar.

Notes

Don’t add the powdered sugar dusting until the cake is completely cool, otherwise the sugar will melt.
