Gluten-Free Chocolate Cake

You will need:

2 cups gluten-free flour
1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
2 large eggs
1 cup milk
1/2 cup vegetable oil
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1 cup boiling water
Gluten-free chocolate frosting

Instructions

Start by preheating your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free flour, cocoa powder, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
Add the eggs, milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Mix well until the batter is smooth and well combined.
Gradually add the boiling water to the batter, mixing continuously. The batter will be thin, but that's okay.
Pour the batter evenly into the prepared cake pans.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30 to 35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cakes comes out clean.
Allow the cakes to cool in the pans for about 10 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Once the cakes are completely cooled, spread the gluten-free chocolate frosting evenly over one of the cakes. Place the second cake on top and spread frosting on top and around the sides of the cake.

Notes

Ensure all your ingredients are at room temperature before starting. This recipe can also be made into cupcakes, just adjust the baking time accordingly.
