If you’re on the hunt for a dessert that’s sure to be the star of any gathering, look no further than this extra moist, Double Chocolate Gluten Free Cake recipe.

Baked with light and grit-free gfJules Flour blend, this recipe guarantees a tender crumb and rich chocolatey goodness in every bite.

This recipe features two layers of pure indulgence, but also options: enhance the rich chocolate flavor with a hint of coffee (which no one would ever suspect as a secret ingredient) that serves to both deepen the chocolate flavor and temper the sweetness, or keep this cake coffee-free for a more straightforward sweet treat.

What makes this cake even more special? Like all my recipes, it’s both dairy-free and gluten-free, making it the perfect choice for all. What could be better for chocolate lovers than being able to enjoy a delectable dessert without compromise?

Whether you’re celebrating a special occasion or just craving a sweet slice of soft chocolate heaven, this crowd-pleasing cake promises to impress and satisfy with its luscious texture and decadent chocolate flavor.

Ingredients

Cake

• 2 ½ cups (338 grams) gfJules® All Purpose Gluten Free Flour
• 2 cups granulated cane sugar
• 1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1½ tsp. baking powder
• 1 Tbs. baking soda
• 1½ tsp. salt
• 4 eggs (or substitute see suggestions here)
• ½ cup mild oil like avocado
• 2 tsp. white vinegar
• 1 tsp. pure vanilla extract
• 1¼ cups milk of choice OR coffee (see intro above recipe card for info about which to choose)

Instructions

1.    Preheat oven to 325° F.

2.   Line with parchment rounds or oil two 9-inch round cake pans. 

3.    In the bowl of a stand mixer, whisk the flour, sugar, cocoa, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Mix on low until combined.

4.    Add the eggs, oil, vinegar, vanilla, and milk. Mix on medium speed just until the batter is smooth. This should take 1-2 minutes.

5.    Divide the batter between the cake pans.

6.    For two 9” cake pans, bake for 30-40 minutes. A toothpick inserted into the middle of the cakes should come out clean or with dry crumbs. Pressing gently onto the top of each cake, it should feel firm and bounce back.

8.    Allow cakes to cool in the pans for 15 minutes before gently turning them out on a cooling rack to finish cooling. Frost only after completely cooled.
