Gluten Free Chocolate Snack Cake With Creamy Butterscotch Frosting Food

BEST EVER GLUTEN FREE CHOCOLATE CAKE RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees and spray 2 8-inch cake pans with non-stick spray. Line the bottom of the pans with parchment paper and spray that parchment paper with non-stick spray.
• In the bowl of a stand mixer, sift together the flour, xanthan gum, sugar, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder and salt. Use the paddle attachment to mix the dry ingredients on low speed.

• With the mixer running on low speed, slowly pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Mix until completely combined.
• Scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl and pour in the hot coffee. Mix on low until incorporated.
• Pour the batter (it will be very thin and pretty liquidy) evenly between the two pans. Bake at 350 degrees for 35 - 40 minutes. (Mine take about 37 minutes.)
• Cool the cakes on a wire rack (in the pan) for 20 minutes. Carefully remove the cakes from the pans and cool completely on a wire rack.
• When the cakes are cool, prepare the buttercream.
• Add the butter to the bowl of a stand mixer and beat until completely smooth. Add the powdered sugar and cocoa powder and mix on low to combine. Mix in the vanilla extract and heavy cream.
