    -1/4 cup hershey's coco powder
    -1/4 cup Trader Joe's Spicy Chai Tea Mix

    -1/3 cup + 3 Tbs Vegetable Oil
    -1 cup Organic Coconut Milk

    -1/2 cup Heavy Whipping Cream
    *(note: can substitute 1/2 cup more of Coconut milk if you wish)

Tips

**(NOTE: this is a very moist cake, and will stick just slightly to the toothpick even when completely cooked)

Once Cooled, cake can be topped with a dusting of powdered sugar or other toppings such as a cream cheese frosting. Just keep in mind it is a rather rich cake when deciding on toppings.

* it is a perfect cake with Ice cream, especially when slightly warm!*


Directions

-Mix all dry ingredients together.
-Add in wet ingredients slowly while mixing.
*(note: can pre-mix wet ingredients, or just add each individually)
-pour battre into desired baking container & bake at 350deg.

For a large torte pan or 8"-9" cake pans cook for approx. 50-60 min. until toothpick stuck into the center comes out relatively clean.

If you are using a cupcake pan, or mini pie tortes cook for approx. 20 min. until toothpick comes out relatively clean.
