Ingredients
- 2 ½ cups gluten free flour with xanthan gum
- 1 ¼ cups cocoa powder
- 2 ½ cups sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 large eggs
- 1 ¼ cups milk (I used unsweetened almond)
- ½ cup vegetable oil
- 1 ¼ cups water
- 1 tablespoon vanilla
Buttercream frosting
- 1 cup salted butter ( I love Kerrygold)
- 3 ½ cups powdered sugar (more or less to taste)
- 4 tablespoon cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1 tablespoon heavy cream
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees and place rack in center of oven. Spray two 8 x 2 inch round pans with cooking spray and cut out parchment paper circles. Place inside pans and spray parchment paper.
- In a stand mixer add eggs, oil, milk, water and vanilla. Mix well. Add flour, cocoa, sugar and salt and continue to mix, scraping down the sides often.
- Pour into prepared pans and drop gently on counter to release any bubbles. Bake for about 30-40 minutes. Check by inserting a toothpick in center. It is done when toothpick comes out clean.
- Cool completely for several hours before frosting.
Buttercream Frosting
- Place room temperature butter in a stand mixer with paddle attachment and beat for several minutes until light and fluffy. Add sugar one cup at a time and beat well after each addition. Add vanilla and 1 tablespoon heavy cream and continue to mix. You can add more sugar to get a thicker consistency or more cream for thinner.
- Frost cake and serve or store on the counter for several days. It will start to dry out.
Notes
- I do not recommend using any other flour.
