This cake has a pleasant chocolate flavor that is reminiscent of a “light brownie.” Milk, nuts, and oil can easily be modified for individual preference. I make it with wheat when I want a wonderful brownie-like cake. Great recipe!

 

  • 1 cup wheat free flour blend
  • 1 cup coconut sugar
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/2 tsp. baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp. baking powder

  2. In large mixing bowl, whisk together flour blend, coconut sugar, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and nuts.
  3. In separate bowl, whisk eggs. Add milk, oil, and almond flavoring.
  4. Add wet mixture to dry ingredients, stirring until thoroughly mixed.
  5. Pour batter into greased 9×9 pan. Smooth the top, and gently tap pan on counter to release air bubbles.
