Quick Vegan Chocolate Cake with Cranberries

Shalom,

There is snow on the ground and a chill in the air. It’s time to B-A-K-E!!! What is it about home baking that warms the heart as well as the hearth? I don’t know, but I gladly give in to its call!

Today I made this easy, very quick whole wheat chocolate cake with organic sweetened cranberries.
