Vegan Oreo Cake
By 
The chocolate cake itself is super simple and easy, nothing crazy. I subbed applesauce instead of oil in the cake in an attempt to mildly mitigate the caloric load of all them oreos. And to be honest, the oil was not missed at all. The icing is actually really simple too – it’s just a basic vegan buttercream with a healthy an insane amount of oreos added to it. So all in all it’s really quite a basic cake recipe, but the cake and icing together is just bomb AF. I am definitely not upset that I decided to make an oreo cake!

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 °F
- Grease and/or line a 3 8-inch cake pans (I line mine with a circle of parchment paper then grease with cooking spray)
- In a large bowl, combine flour, cocoa, baking powder, baking soda, and salt
- In another large bowl, combine dairy free milk, sugar, applesauce, apple cider vinegar, and vanilla extract, stirring until fully mixed
- Add dry ingredients to wet mixture, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to over mix (the batter will be a little lumpy, that's okay!)
- Evenly distribute batter between your 3 prepped cake pans
- Bake in preheated oven for 25-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the middle of the cakes comes out clean
- Let cool in pans, then remove and allow to fully cool on a wire cooling rack
