Instructions
Vegan Cake
- Preheat the oven to 350°F and grease two 6-inch round cake pans.
- In a large bowl, cream together the sugar and butter. Add the applesauce and vanilla, and mix well.
- In a large bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, and salt. Mix well.
- Add in the milk and vinegar. Mix well again.
- Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and use a hand mixer to combine them.
- Soak two baking strips in water for a minute or two, then shake free of excess water and place around the cake pans. Place pans on a baking sheet, then divide the batter evenly between the two pans.
- Spread batter evenly and bake for about 40 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
- Set the cakes aside to cool and make the frosting.
Vegan Buttercream Frosting
- In a large bowl, use a hand mixer to cream together the butter, vanilla, and milk. Add the powdered sugar in a cup at a time and mix it thoroughly into the batter.
- Hand mix the frosting after adding the last cup of powdered sugar.
Assembly
- Once the cakes are completely cool, remove the first one from the pan, set it on a cake board, and put a thick layer of frosting on the top.
- Place the second cake on top of the first cake, then frost the entire cake. Use a frosting smoother for the best-looking frosting job.
- Using your hand, press the sprinkles of your choosing up around the edge of the cake starting at the bottom.
- Slice, serve, and enjoy!
