    These homemade/copycat Hostess HoHos are one of my all-time favorite recipes! They were gone so quickly at my house, which is always a good sign. I filled these with my vegan frosting, and it works perfectly. These are gluten-free, dairy-free, and make for the most delicious treat!

    Course Dessert, Snack
    Servings 8 HoHos

    Ingredients
      

    For the chocolate cake:

    • 2 ounces cacao powder
    • 2 ounces hot water
    • 4 ounces egg yolk from about 6 eggs
    • 7 ounces egg whites
    • 2 tablespoon nondairy butter
    • 5 ounces sugar divided into 4 ounces & 1 ounce
    • 2 teaspoon vanilla extract

    For the filling:

    • 1 can vegan vanilla frosting

    For the chocolate coating:

    • 1 cup nondairy chocolate
    • 3 tablespoon coconut oil

    Instructions
     

    • Preheat oven to 350°F and line a 17x11 inch pan with parchment paper. In a bowl, combine the cacao powder, hot water, vanilla, and butter together.
    • In a mixer, whisk the egg yolks and 4 ounces of sugar until light and fluffy. Mix in the chocolate mixture.
    • In a separate bowl, whisk the egg whites until soft peaks form. Add in the 1 ounce of sugar until stiff peaks form. Fold the egg whites into the other mixture slowly to not lose the air.
    • Pour and spread evenly into the prepared pan and bake for about 15 min. Lay a damp cloth over the pan while it cools.
    • Once cooled, spread the frosting evenly over the cake. Cut the cake into 4 large rectangles and roll each so that they look like a swiss roll/hoho. Cut each in half so that you have 8 HoHos. Freeze while you melt the chocolate coating together. Pour over the swiss rolls and let harden before enjoying!
