Ingredients
  

Cake

  • 1 box vanilla cake mix
  • Required ingredients listed on cake mix

Frosting

  • 1/4 cup vegan butter
  • 1/2 cup powdered monkfruit coupon code above!
  • 1/2 tbsp almond milk
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla

Coating

  • 1 bag of dairy free white chocolate chips
  • 1/4 cup dairy free chocolate chips

Instructions
 

  • Prep your cake as instructed on the mix. Rather than baking in a cake pan, bake in a parchment lined 8x11 cookie sheet. This will make the cake thinner and easier to work with. Bake for 15-18 minutes at 350F until lightly golden.
  • Let cake cool completely, then use a round cookie cutter or jar lid to cut into circles. You should get about 12 circles out of the cake. Put circles in the fridge for at least an hour.
  • After the circles of cake have cooled, you'll make your frosting. Beat softened butter with electric mixer, then add other ingredients and mix until fluffy. Spread frosting on half of the circles, then stack the plain ones on top of a frosted one. Put in freezer for one hour.
  • Then melt 1 bag of Pascha dairy free white chocolate chips. Dip the frozen cakes in the melted chocolate, coating evenly and using a fork to flip. Put back in freezer for a couple minutes. Meanwhile, melt the semi sweet chocolate. Pull the cakes back out of the freezer and drizzle the melted chocolate on top to make the zebra stripes.
  • Let settle for 5 min before enjoying.
