Vanilla Wacky Cake
This is my version of a wacky cake (a more spongy cake that doesn’t use eggs, milk, or butter) but it has less sugar and oil and is gluten free.
This little cake is the perfect solution for when you don’t want a whole cake in the house, but want a little something to celebrate with (Valentine’s Day is my excuse for this one).
The cake is vegan (frosting can be too if you use a vegan cream cheese!) has the most deliciously moist (sorry not sorry for using that word) and fluffy texture, and the easy cream cheese frosting is just the literal icing on the cake.
