Yield: 1 Torte

Ingredients:

Quantity Ingredient
8 Tofu
2 Coconut oil
3/4 Water
1 Vanilla extract
1 Unbleached all-purpose flour
2 Cocoa powder
3/4 Ground cinnamon
2 Baking soda
1 Cream of tartar
1 Margarine
1/4 Cocoa powder (for glaze)
1/4 Water (for glaze)
3 Instant espresso powder
1 Vanilla extract (for glaze)
1 1/2 Cinnamon (for decoration)

Instructions:

  1. Preheat Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 350ยฐF (175ยฐC). Prepare a 10- or 12-inch springform pan by greasing it with oil and dusting it lightly with cocoa powder.

  2. Prepare Cake Batter: In a mixing bowl, use an electric mixer to blend tofu with Sucanat (natural cane sugar) on low speed until it forms a paste-like consistency. Increase speed and beat until the mixture becomes shiny and thick like syrup. Donโ€™t worry if the Sucanat isnโ€™t completely dissolved at this stage.

  3. Incorporate Wet Ingredients: Add coconut oil, water, and vanilla extract to the tofu mixture, beating until well combined.

  4. Sift Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, sift together flour, cocoa powder, ground cinnamon, baking soda, and cream of tartar.

  5. Combine Batter: Gradually blend the sifted dry ingredients into the liquid mixture until a smooth batter forms.

  6. Bake: Pour the batter into the prepared springform pan and bake in the preheated oven for 40-50 minutes, or until a tester inserted into the center comes out clean.

  7. Cool: Once baked, transfer the cake to a cooling rack and allow it to cool completely.

  8. Prepare Glaze: In a small saucepan, combine cocoa powder, water, instant espresso powder, and vanilla extract for the glaze. Cook and stir over medium heat until the mixture is shiny and smooth. Bring it to a boil, then remove from heat and let it cool for 10 minutes. Stir vigorously before using.

  9. Assemble Cake: Remove the sides of the springform pan and, if necessary, trim the top of the cake to ensure itโ€™s even. Invert the cake onto a rack set over a pan to catch drips. Remove the bottom of the pan from the cake.

  10. Glaze Cake: Carefully pour the prepared glaze evenly over the top of the cake, allowing some to drip down the sides. Use a knife or spatula to spread the glaze around, ensuring full coverage.

  11. Decorate: Enhance the presentation by pressing ground nuts onto the sides of the cake and sprinkling the top and sides with cinnamon.

  12. Serve: Transfer the beautifully glazed cake to a serving platter and prepare to impress your guests with this indulgent vegan masterpiece!

  13. Enjoy: Slice and savor each heavenly bite of this Cinnamon-Cocoa Torte with Chocolate-Mocha Glaze. Itโ€™s a symphony of flavors that will leave you craving more!

Now, gather your ingredients and embark on a culinary adventure to create this unforgettable dessert. Your taste buds will thank you! ๐ŸŒŸ
