Instructions:

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°. If using a dark pan reduce oven temperature to 340°.

  3. Combine the Chocolate Mix in one bowl and then put aside
    • Combine the Chocolate Mix dry ingredients (flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking soda & salt) in your large mixing bowl.
    • Pour in the Chocolate Mix liquid ingredients (oil, vanilla, vinegar & cold water). Mix all the ingredients together until just combined.
    • Put aside until ready to mix with the completed Yellow Cake mixture before cooking

    • Add the Dairy Free milk, vanilla extract, oil, vinegar and applesauce and mix using a hand whisk or spoon until all the lumps are gone. If a few small lumps remain, that’s fine.
  5. Pour the Yellow Cake batter into your pan until the pan is half full.

  7. Placing a knife halfway down into the batter and use a back and forth motion to create a swirl between the chocolate and yellow cake.

  9. Allow cake to cool for 5 minutes in the pan, then transfer cake to cooling rack and leave for at least 5 minutes before eating.

Tip:           It will make a more distinct difference between the Yellow and Chocolate cakes if you swirl the knife once. For a more blended mixture swirl the knife more.

Tip:           You can substitute lemon juice for apple cider vinegar
