Does anyone have any recipes for making a vegan cake or taking a regular cake recipe and making it into a vegan recipe? I am planning a birthday party for a vegan.
WACKY CHOCOLATE CAKE
1 cup white sugar
1 1/2 cup flour
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 cup cocoa
1 tsp baking soda
1 TBLS vinegar
1/2 cup salad oil
1 cup cold water
Mix all together til smooth
Bake in PAM sprayed 8 X 8 pan, or double recipe for 9 X 13 size pan.
Bake at 350 degrees 15 mins for cupcakes, or 30-35 mins for cake.
This is a very moist cake-you will love it.
WIsgal - I was just about to post the very same recipe. I've been making that recipe for years and have passed it on to so many people - everyone loves it. . My daughter also makes it for special occasions and puts dark chocolate chunks in it and bottled cherries - divine!

Tina - I made vegan cakes for years for a vegan daughter. Basically you replace any milk with soy milk, no-dairy margarine instead of butter and use a product called "No Egg" to replace your eggs. It comes just fine. I used to make banana cakes, apple cakes, chocolate cake (as per previous recipe) etc. If you use chocolate just be careful that it is dairy-free. Also some red food colouring isn't vegan - so avoid that.

I use cake mix and add a can a pumkin. I usely use chocolate. Also spice cake mix is good with pumkin
Check out a cook book called "Veganomicon" by Moskowitz and Romero. Or any of their cookbooks. They are some of the best vegan cooks out there.

How do I make a Vegan Banana Wacky cake that has no chocolate in it but has Vegan chocolate chips sprinkled on top?

How about this one: happylittlecupcakes.blogspot.com/
Here is my recipe for Vegan Banana Bread that is a hit with everyone!! You can just sprinkle chocolate chips on top if you want.
3 medium very ripe bananas
1 1/2 cups + 2 Tbsp flour
1 tsp baking soda
Chocolate chips (optional)
Preheat oven to 325F. Mix first 4 ingredients in a large bowl, then add flour & soda & chips if using & stir until just mixed. Place in a greased loaf pan and bake for 60-70mins.
Vegan cake is easy to make and adding some fruit flavor with pineapple and banana is delicious and a little healthier. This page contains vegan pineapple banana cake.
