Moosewood Vegan Chocolate Cake

I still have things I baked over winter break, but I'm leaving those for a bit to make a post about this cake I made for my roommate Lucy on her 22nd birthday late January. We went to Moosewood Cafe a few months ago and loved their cake, so I tried to find the recipe to make it on my own. It was pretty easy--not perfect, and I think it would have gone best in a 9-in square pan instead of the 9-in circular pan the recipe calls for because the glaze kind of spilled over, but it was a good cake. It's best eaten the day-of.

Because the recipe is in the Moosewood Restaurant Book of Desserts, you can find the recipe reprinted here: Moosewood Cooks.
