Ingredients
Method
Prepare the strawberry filling
- In a pot, combine half the strawberries, 1 cup of sugar, lemon juice, water, and cornstarch.
- Cook over medium heat until bubbling, then mash the mixture to desired smoothness, removing from the heat once thickened.
- Set aside.
Make the chocolate cake
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a Bundt pan.
- In a large bowl, whisk together flour, 2 cups sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, instant coffee, and salt.
- Add oat milk, vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients, mixing until smooth.
- Gradually pour in boiling water and mix until combined. The batter will be thin.
- Fold in the mini chocolate morsels.
- Pour the batter into the prepared Bundt pan.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
- Cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then carefully transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Prepare the strawberry whipped cream frosting
- In a mixing bowl, beat heavy cream and powdered sugar until soft peaks form.
- Gently fold in the prepared strawberry filling.
Assemble the cake
- Once the cake is completely cooled, carefully slice it in half horizontally.
- Spread a layer of strawberry whipped cream filling on the bottom layer and top with fresh strawberries.
- Place the top half of the cake back on and spread more whipped cream on the top.
- Drizzle with Ghirardelli chocolate sauce and sprinkle with optional shaved chocolate.
