chocolate cake Gluten-free

Here’s a rich and moist Gluten-Free Chocolate Cake recipe that’s simple and delicious:

🍫 Gluten-Free Chocolate Cake

Ingredients:

Dry:

  • 1 ¾ cups gluten-free all-purpose flour (with xanthan gum)

  • ¾ cup unsweetened cocoa powder

  • 1 ½ tsp baking powder

  • 1 ½ tsp baking soda

  • ½ tsp salt

Wet:

  • 2 large eggs

  • 1 cup milk (or almond milk)

  • ½ cup vegetable oil

  • 2 tsp vanilla extract

  • 1 cup boiling water (or hot coffee for deeper flavor)

  • 1 ½ cups granulated sugar

🧁 Instructions:

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line two 8-inch round pans or one 9×13-inch pan.

  2. Whisk dry ingredients in a large bowl: flour, cocoa, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

  3. In another bowl, beat eggs, sugar, milk, oil, and vanilla until smooth.

  4. Gradually add the dry mix into the wet, stirring gently.

  5. Slowly pour in hot water or coffee, mixing until batter is smooth (it will be thin — that’s good!).

  6. Pour into prepared pan(s).

    • Bake for 30–35 minutes (round pans) or 35–40 minutes (9×13 pan), or until a toothpick comes out clean.

  7. Cool completely before frosting.

🍫 Optional Chocolate Frosting:

  • ½ cup unsalted butter (softened)

  • ⅔ cup cocoa powder

  • 3 cups powdered sugar

  • ⅓ cup milk (adjust for consistency)

  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Beat all ingredients until fluffy and spread over cooled cake.
