How to Prepare Coffee Glazed Chocolate Hazelnut Cake [Vegan]

To Make the Coffee Cream:

Put all the coffee cream ingredients in a food processor and mix them well.
Let it wait in the refrigerator for about 4 hours or overnight.

To Make the Cake:

Preheat the oven to 350°F.
Put all the dry ingredients in a bowl, mix, and set aside.
Mix the wet ingredients in a separate bowl.
Add the liquid and dry mixes together and combine.
Pour the batter in a cake mold lightly coated with oil, a five by seven-inch loaf pan if you have it.
Bake for about 45-50 minutes. Keep an eye on it during baking. A toothpick inserted in the middle of the cake should come out clean to judge when it is done.
When the cake is at room temperature, spread the coffee cream on top, or serve the cream along with the cake.
