Now it’s time to bring everything together Pour your wet ingredients into your dry ingredients, and mix until it’s smooth and creamy. Don’t overmix, or you’ll end up with a dense cake. Pour your batter into two 9-inch (23cm) round cake pans, and smooth out the tops.
Pop those cakes into the oven, and bake for about 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean. Let them cool in the pans for a few minutes, before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Now, let’s talk about the frosting. Oh, the frosting It’s made with baked sweet potato, because who doesn’t love a good sweet potato? Simply bake your sweet potato in the oven until it’s soft, then let it cool. Once it’s cool, blend it with your non-dairy milk, cocoa powder, and maple syrup until it’s smooth and creamy.
Assemble your cake by spreading a layer of frosting on top of one of the cooled cakes, then topping it with the other cake. Frost the outside of the cake with the remaining frosting, and decorate with sprinkles or chopped nuts.
