Now that we’ve set the stage with this gorgeous image, let’s get into what you’ll need to whip this up at home. Here’s the list of ingredients!
Ingredients
- 1 ¾ cups gluten-free all-purpose flour (make sure it contains xanthan gum)
- 1 ½ cups granulated sugar
- ¾ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
- 1 ½ teaspoons baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup buttermilk (or use a dairy-free alternative)
- ½ cup vegetable oil
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 cup boiling water
Instructions
- First things first, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans or line them with parchment paper for easy removal.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Whisk together until everything is well mixed.
- Add the eggs, buttermilk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Use an electric mixer to beat on medium speed for about 2 minutes. The batter will be thick, but don’t worry!
- Now, stir in the boiling water. This step makes the batter thinner, and trust me, it’s going to result in a super moist cake.
- Pour the batter evenly into the prepared cake pans. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let them cool in the pans for about 10 minutes, then remove from pans and transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Once your cakes are cool, you can frost them with your favorite gluten-free chocolate frosting – or keep it simple and enjoy it plain. Either way, you’re about to bless your palate with a chocolate experience like no other!
Alright, friends, there you have it! A show-stopping Gluten-Free Chocolate Cake that’s bound to be a hit at your next gathering. Now, get in that kitchen and start baking – you won’t regret it!
