Amazing Vegan Birthday Cake!

This has been one busy week full of surprise birthdays, welcome home’s and celebrating. To celebrate my birthday, which was last Monday, my best friend Haley made me the greatest vegan birthday cake! Not only was the top very creative and thoughtful, it tasted AMAZING!
Thank you so much Haley :)Here’s the recipe she used below:
1 1/2 cups flour
1 tsp baking powder
1 cup sugar
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
3 tbsp cocoa
1 tsp vanilla
1 tbsp vinegar
5 tbsp melted vegan margarine
1 cup lukewarm water

Combine dry ingredients, add remaining ingredients, mix well. Bake 30-35 minutes at 350 degrees.

The icing:
1/2 cup vegan margarine
3 cups icing sugar
1/3 cup cocoa
1 tsp vanilla
3 to 4 tsp nondairy milk

Cream butter until smooth, add sugar. Cream 2 minutes. Add other ingredients. Beat until light and fluffy (~3 mins). Add soy milk if too dry.
