- In a different bowl, mix olive oil and the following four fixings. After you combine them, add sugar.
Into the flour blend, pour the wet avocado and mix them until they merge. Separate them equally between the cake pans. Place the cake mixture in two 9″ round cake pans, and don’t forget that after 30 minutes you should check for doneness. - In order to successfully apply the icing, make sure the cakes cool off first, which may take about 15 minutes after they are completely baked. Add a layer of icing on the first layer of the cake and cover it with the second cake layer. Add the rest of the icing to the top of the cake as shown on the video.
