Ingredients

Instructions

  • Prepare the Sweetened Condensed Coconut Milk (link to the recipe is provided above). Set aside
  • Heat your oven to 350F
  • Prepare your 9 x 13 baking pan by spraying it with vegetable spray.
  • Next, in a large bowl, add one stick of margarine. Warm it in the microwave for a few seconds until the margarine is soft. Add the strawberry cake mix and 1/4 cup of the slightly cooled Sweetened Condensed Coconut Milk mixture. Stir to combine. This is going to be a sturdy dough – more like a cookie dough than cake or brownies. Spread the cake dough in the bottom of the prepared pan. You’ll have to coax it a little to get it to reach each corner of the pan. You can do it!
  • Next, pour half of the remaining Sweetened Condensed Coconut Milk mixture over the top of the strawberry cake batter, being sure to cover each area of the cake equally.
  • Bake for 30–35 minutes until it’s done in the center.
  • In the meantime, add the cup of chocolate chips to the remaining Sweetened Condensed Coconut Milk. If it's still slightly warm, the chocolate chips might just melt, but if not, you might need to heat it up a little. About 11 seconds in the microwave did the trick for me.
  • Once the Strawberry Gooey Cake is done, remove from the oven and set aside to cool. Pour the chocolate mixture over the top. I reserved a little extra to pour on top immediately before serving. Yummy!

Notes

*Some commercial cake mixes are what we call “accidentally vegan.” There are a lot of ingredients listed (usually something we keep to a minimum), but just look for the ones that don’t list animal products such as milk, eggs, animal shortening, etc.
