Steps of Vegan Black Forest Cake Recipe

#	Steps
1.	Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease two 9-inch round cake pans and set aside.
2.	In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
3.	In a separate mixing bowl, whisk together the almond milk, vegetable oil, white vinegar, and vanilla extract.
4.	Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until just combined.
5.	Gradually stir in the hot water, mixing until the batter is smooth and well-combined.
6.	Pour the batter evenly into the prepared cake pans and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
7.	Let the cakes cool completely in the pans.
8.	While the cakes are cooling, make the whipped cream. Remove the cans of coconut milk from the refrigerator and open them. Scoop out the thick, creamy layer on top and place it in a mixing bowl. Add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract and beat with an electric mixer until light and fluffy.
9.	When the cakes are cool, remove them from the pans and place one layer on a cake plate or serving platter.
10.	Spread the cherry pie filling on top of the first cake layer.
11.	Place the second cake layer on top of the cherry filling.
12.	Spread a generous layer of whipped cream on top of the second cake layer.
13.	Garnish the cake with fresh cherries and chocolate shavings.
14.	Serve and enjoy!

Tips:

Be sure to use full-fat coconut milk for the whipped cream. Light coconut milk will not work as well.
To make chocolate shavings, use a vegetable peeler to shave thin strips off of a chocolate bar.
The cake can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

This Vegan Black Forest Cake is sure to be a crowd-pleaser, with its moist and chocolatey layers, sweet cherry filling, and fluffy whipped cream. It's a delicious and indulgent dessert that's perfect for any occasion.
