Instructions

  • Pre-heat the oven at 350°F (180°C or gas mark 4)
  • For the cake, combine all the ingredients together in a food processor until smooth.
  • Pour the batter into a 9-by-12-inch sheet pan that has been greased (with ghee) and allow it to bake for approximately 30-45 minutes.
  • Make the frosting while the cake is baking,
  • When the cake has cooled down, spread the frosting generously on top if you want a one layer cake,
  • Or alternately, you could cut the sheet cake in half and make a two-layer cake. In this case, you would add the frosting between the layers first, and then around and on top of the cake.

Vanilla Frosting

instructions

  • Combine all the ingredients for the frosting in a bowl with a hand-held blender.
  • When done, the frosting should be smooth and spreadable, not watery.
  • It shouldn’t slide off or soak into the cake base. If needed, add more cashews to get the right consistency.

Notes

This recipe originated from the desire to create a frosting without egg whites. We used (blended) cashews as a creamy base to give it a smooth consistency. We kept our cake batter and frosting simple, and topped it with fresh fruit at the time of serving.
