Instructions
Prepare the Oven and Pans:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans, or line them with parchment paper.
Mix Dry Ingredients:
In a large bowl, sift together the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
Combine Wet Ingredients:
Add the cooled coffee, vegetable oil, vanilla extract, and vegan buttermilk to the dry ingredients.
Mix until smooth and well combined, but avoid overmixing.
Bake the Cakes:
Divide the batter evenly between the prepared pans.
Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow the cakes to cool in the pans for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Prepare the Coffee Ganache:
In a saucepan over medium heat, heat the coconut milk until it just begins to simmer.
Remove from heat and pour over the vegan dark chocolate chips in a bowl.
Let it sit for 2-3 minutes to melt the chocolate, then add the brewed coffee and stir until smooth.
Allow the ganache to cool slightly to thicken.
Assemble the Cake:
Place one cake layer on a serving plate and spread a layer of ganache on top.
Place the second cake layer on top and spread the remaining ganache over the top and sides of the cake.
For an extra touch, garnish with coffee beans or shaved vegan chocolate.
