Ingredients:
- 2 cups (250g) all-purpose flour
- 3/4 cup (150g) coconut sugar
- 1/2 cup (45g) unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 tsp (5g) baking soda
- 1/2 tsp (3g) salt
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 cup (120g) Greek yogurt
- 1/2 cup (120ml) unsweetened almond milk
- 1/4 cup (60ml) melted coconut oil
- 1 tsp (5ml) vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup (120ml) hot brewed coffee
- 8 oz (225g) softened cream cheese
- 1/2 cup (125g) natural creamy peanut butter
- 1/4 cup (60ml) maple syrup
- 1 tsp (5ml) vanilla extract
- 3 tbsp (45ml) heavy cream
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13 inch pan and line the bottom with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, sift together the flour, coconut sugar, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. Whisk until uniform and clump-free.
- Add the eggs, Greek yogurt, almond milk, melted oil, and vanilla. Mix on medium speed until combined.
- Slowly pour in the hot coffee, stirring by hand until the batter is smooth and glossy.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 28–32 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
- While the cake cools completely on a wire rack, beat the cream cheese and peanut butter until smooth.
- Blend in the maple syrup and vanilla. Add heavy cream one tablespoon at a time until the frosting is spreadable.
- Slather the frosting evenly over the cooled cake.
