ingredients
- 1 cup unbleached flour
- 1 1⁄4 teaspoons non-aluminum baking powder
- 1⁄2 teaspoon sea salt
- 1⁄4 cup potato (white potato puree)
- 1 tablespoon vegan margarine (vegan)
- 1⁄2 cup raw sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1⁄4 teaspoon lemon extract
- 1⁄2 cup soymilk (plain at room temperature)
- 1 (3 7/8 ounce) box vegan vanilla pudding mix (I used Dr. Oetker cooked style)
- 1 1⁄2 cups water
- 2 tablespoons vegan margarine (melted)
- 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa
- 2 tablespoons water (hot)
- 1 cup confectioners' sugar
- 1⁄2 teaspoon vanilla
directions
- Preheat oven to 350'F.
- Lightly spray an 8 inch round cake tin.
-
FOR THE FILLING:
- Prepare the pudding according to package directions but use less milk as the ingredients state above. The filling should be thicker then if you were just making a pudding.
-
FOR THE CAKE:
- In a mixing bowl sift the flour, baking powder and salt.
- In another bowl cream the potato and margarine together. Add sugar and beat until sugar is fluffy and incorporated into the mixture.
- Add the vanilla and lemon extract and continue beating.
- Slowly add the soy milk and beat until well mixed. Add the flour mixture, 1/3 cup at a time and beat until the batter is smooth.
- Pour the batter into your prepared pan and bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or a tooth pick comes out clean inserted in the center.
- If done, remove cake from oven and cool on a metal rack for 20 minutes. Remove the cake from the pan and cool for an additional hour on the cooling rack.
- Cut the cake in half. Fill it with the vanilla pudding, put the top back on the cake and glaze.
-
FOR THE GLAZE:
- Combine the melted margarine, cocoa and hot water in a bowl. Blend in the confectioner's sugar and vanilla. When you like the consistency pour or spread over the cake and let it cool for a while so the glaze can set.
- Bon Appetit.

I was born in northern Ontario in Canada. I am of Irish /Spanish/French Canadian descent.
In 2002, myself, my hubby Stu, and our dog Ginger moved to the high desert of New Mexico.
I am a Domestic Engineer and a Professional Artist. I enjoy oldies, classical and jazz music.
My hubby is a Professional Jazz and Classical Musician. He plays with the Albuquerque Philharmonic Orchestra which is wonderful because I get to see all his concerts and they are free!
We are trying our best to live a Green and Sustainable lifestyle which is no easy feat in a desert.
I love any cookbook that promotes good health and tasty meals. I enjoy pasta dishes and sweet vegan deserts. I have found that I am very successful in converting conventional recipes to vegan. This has allowed me to enjoy all types of foods that I other wise could not.
Some day we would like to relocate to upstate New York and be closer to my family in Canada and my husbands in New York. My DH retires in 9 years, so nothing will stop us from heading home then :-)
