Okay, this is a chocolate cake, plain and simple, but my favorite way to bake it is as a bundt cake!! It's so pretty!! But anyway you bake it, it is delicious!!! Friends love it and always say, "Wow! This is gluten free?" I love those 4 words!
Chocolate Cake
2 eggs - put in mixer and start mixing eggs while you get the sour cream ready, then add:
1 C sour cream
1/2 C oil
2 tsp vanilla
Mix this well, for about a minute then add dry ing.
2 C GF flour mix (using the Asian white flour)
1/2 tsp xanthan gum
2 C sugar
3/4 c. cocoa
1 1/2 tsp baking soda
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
Mix well, scraping the side and bottom of bowl for about a minute.
Then add 1/2 C boiling water slowly while it is mixing. Mix for one more minute.
Spray your bundt pan (or whatever pan you want) well and add the mix and bake!
350 degrees
Bundt pan - 50 minutes
9x13 - 35-40
When it's done I flip it over and let it cool about 15-20 min (sometimes we can't wait that long!!)
Here is the frosting recipe. I like to make it thin and pour it on. If you want it thicker just add more powdered sugar.
Chocolate Frosting
2 Tbls butter - melt in small saucepan over med heat. When melted add:
1/4 c granulated sugar - stir (I use a wisk) for about 30 seconds so the sugar melts. Take off the heat. Add:
2 Tbls cocoa and mix well. Then add:
2 Tbls milk and mix. Then add:
1/4 powdered sugar and wisk really well until all the lumps are gone.
Pour over your cake and sprinkle with a little powdered sugar if you like!! or sprinkles are fun too!! In fact if you want you can just sprinkle the powdered sugar and not add frosting!
Enjoy!
