Vegan double chocolate cake with banana surprise

ingredients:

175g flour
1 ts baking soda
1/2 ts salt
45g cocoa powder
90g veg. margarine
150g sugar
2 Ts water
240ml soy milk
1 ts vanilla extract
1/2 ts ground cinnamon
100g dark chocolate
1 banana

Stir together flour, bicarbonate of soda, salt, cinnamon and cocoa powder.
In a separate bowl, blend together margarine, sugar and water until fluffy
Add this to flour mixture as well as soy milk and vanilla
Mix gently until the dough is smooth

Pour the dough into a cake form
Chop/break the chocolate into chunks
Peel the banana and together with the chocolate drop it in the cake dough

At gas mark 5, bake for about 30mins or until no dough sticks to a wooden knitting needle that you use to check your cake because your kitchen is massively underequiped.

Let cool and enjoy

Or get impatient and enjoy while still warm. The melted chocolate makes a mess, but tastes lovely.
