When entertaining, it’s important to me that everyone present partakes in a tasty dessert. Having several friends that follow gluten free diets, I was bound and determined to find a dessert that was moist, tasty and had a nice texture. After trying several recipes (some were really gross), I came across this gem. It comes from Chrystal at The Gluten Free Palate. The recipe for the frosting I used can also be found on my website. Even the folks that don’t eat gluten free foods enjoyed this cake and I hope you will as well.

1 c milk
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
3/4 cup boiling water

Notes
- For a more robust flavor, you can substitute strong, hot coffee in place of the boiling water.
