• Preheat oven to 350*F. Grease 3 6-inch cake pans OR 2 8-inch cake pans and line the bottoms of the pans with parchment circles to prevent sticking.
• In a medium bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Whisk well.
  1 ½ Cups All Purpose Flour, 2 teaspoon Baking Powder, ¼ teaspoon Kosher Salt
• In a large bowl, combine sugar, non-dairymilk, melted vegan butter and vanilla. Whisk to combine.
  1 Cup Brown Sugar, ¾ Cup Non-Dairy Milk, 2 teaspoon Vanilla Extract, 8 tablespoon Non-Dairy Butter, melted and cooled
• Add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients and whisk to form a batter.
• Divide the batter equally between pans. See note for weights.
• Sprinkle the tops of the batter with the chocolate chips and using a knife, swirl the chocolate into the batter while also spreading the batter out evenly across the pan.

• Bake the cakes in a 350* oven for 21-23 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of each cake comes out clean.
• Allow to cool completely before decorating.

Make the Cookie Dough

• In a medium bowl, using a hand mixer or a wooden spoon, cream the butter and brown sugar until well combined. Add the non-dairy milk and vanilla and mix well.
  4 tablespoon Vegan Butter, ½ Cup Light Brown Sugar, 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract, 3 tablespoon Non-Dairy Milk
• Add the heat-treated flour and salt and mix to form the dough. Then, add chocolate chips and mix to distribute. Set aside at room temperature until the cake is cool. If you put it into the refrigerator it will be too hard to spread!

Make the Frosting

• In a large bowl using a hand mixer, cream the vegan butter until no lumps remain. Then add the powdered sugar and mix to combine. Then add the vanilla and non dairy milk and mix until light and fluffy.
  1 Cup Vegan Butter, 4 Cups Powdered Sugar, sifted, 2 teaspoon Vanilla Extract, 2 tablespoon Non-Dairy Milk

To Build the Cake:

• Place one layer of cake upside down on a cake stand or cake board. Then dollop a scant ½ cup of cookie dough across the cake. Use a knife to spread the cookie dough out, then top with another cake layer.
• Repeat. And be sure to reserve about ¼ cup of cookie dough for decorating.
• Frost the outside of the cake with vanilla buttercream and decorate with more cookie dough pieces and mini chocolate chips.
