The Best Vegan Banana Chocolate Cake EVER!!

I made this cake last week and it was amazingly....amazing!!
I'll be honest, I thought making a cake and frosting from scratch would be hard and time consuming. Add that it would be Vegan as well, was a little intimidating.
It was easy peasy lemon squeezy! If I can do it, anyone can do it!

Let's get to it!

Ingredients for Cake:

• 3 ripe bananas
• 3/4 C. sugar
• 1 egg ( I used an egg replacer)
• 1/3 C. EVOO
• 1/3 C. dairy-free chocolate chips (optional)
• 1 1/2 C. flour
• 1 TSP baking soda
• 1TSP baking powder
• 1/2 TSP salt

Ingredients for Chocolate Frosting:

• 1/2 C. non-dairy butter or margrine
• 2/3 C. cocoa powder ( I used Hershey's)
• 3 C. 10X powdered sugar
• 1/3 C. milk ( I used almond milk but you can use any milk)
• 1 TSP vanilla extract

Preparation: 

• Preheat your oven to 350C
• Mash bananas really well.
• Beat  the sugar, egg and EVOO in the mashed bananas
• Mix your flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt together in a separate bowl
• Add your DRY ingredients to the wet ones and make sure you mix it REALLY WELL.
• You can fold in the chocolate chips if you want to at this point.
• Spray your pan of choice with cooking spray or wipe it down with a little butter and a paper towel. Whatever you have handy. Grease it up really well because you don't want it sticking. No one wants a sticky cake!! I used a bunt cake pan because I think bunt cakes are cool looking. I know, Nerd, but it's true. You can make muffins out of these if you want.
• Back until lightly brown on the edges and a toothpick or butter knife comes out clean.

Frosting Preparation:

• Melt your butter
• Stir in the cocoa powder
• Alternate adding your milk and powdered sugar, mixing until spreading consistency.
• Add additional milk if needed
• Stir in vanilla
• Makes about 2 C. of frosting.

Frost the cake once it has cooled.
Enjoy this really good, unhealthy, vegan banana chocolate cake!
