What you need to make this gluten free chocolate cake

You guys, this amazing gluten free dessert is so much easier to make than you think.

You can whip it up in no time. You are going to love it!

So here’s what you need…

for the cake

• almond flour
• arrowroot flour
• unsweetened cocoa powder (I used half regular and half special dark)
• baking soda and baking powder
• salt
• eggs
• brown sugar
• almond milk
• coconut oil
• vanilla extract

for the ganache

• dairy free chocolate chips

• SPRINKLES (not required but preferred)

Williams Sonoma gifted me this special edition retro white KitchenAid Artisan Mixer with Hobnail Bowl.

Isn’t she a beauty?

Obsessed could be an understatement. She’s a little bit small than KitchenAid’s commercial-size models but still allows for 14 optional attachments (sold separately). Get your own exclusively at Williams Sonoma.
