Ingredients

Paleo Vanilla Cake (double batch)

  • 12 eggs
  • 2 tbsp vanilla extract
  • 2/3 cup coconut oil, melted
  • 2/3 cup coconut milk
  • 1 cup raw honey
  • 2 tsp apple cider vinegar
  • 4 cups almond flour
  • 1/2 cup coconut flour
  • 2 tsp baking powder

Sweet Cream Cheese Ingredients:

  • 1 cup cream cheese
  • 3 tbsp honey
  • food dye

Cacao Buttercream Ingredients:

  • 1 cup almond milk
  • 1/4 cup melted cocoa butter
  • 1/2 cup honey
  • 3/4 cups butter
  • 1 tbsp vanilla extract
  • food dye

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350F. Lightly grease 4 8-inch round pans. I also recommend lining the bottom of the pan with a circle of parchment paper to keep the cake from sticking to the pan.
  • Blend together the eggs, vanilla, coconut oil, coconut milk, honey, and apple cider vinegar until smooth. Add in the flour and baking powder and mix together.
  • Divide the batter evenly between the 4 pans and bake for 25 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
  • While baking, blend together the sweet cream cheese ingredients. In a stand mixer, mix together the cacao buttercream ingredients on high.
  • Once the cakes cool, top 3 of the cakes with sweet cream cheese icing and layer them on top of each other. Cover the entire cake with cacao buttercream. To make the ombre icing, add 1 more tbsp of colorant for each layer.
  • To make the ears, melt dark chocolate into a large circular cutter, remove the cutter, and place in the freezer.
