Gluten Free Chocolate Cake

Written by on in Cakes, Desserts, Gluten Free

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.
