Ingredients
 
 

For the frosting:

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Take a little bit of coconut oil and oil the bottom of the 5 or 6 inch cake pan. Cut a small circle from parchment paper and fit it into the bottom of the pan.
  • Place the coconut oil in a medium sized mixing bowl, and microwave for about 30 seconds until melted. Add the sugar and stir.
  • Add the gluten free flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, salt, vinegar, and water. Stir well with a spoon.
  • Spoon the batter into the prepared pan. Bake at 350 degrees F for about 24 minutes for a 5 inch pan, and about 22 minutes for a 6 inch pan.
  • Allow the cake to cool in the pan for about 15 minutes, then run a knife around the edge of the pan to loosen the cake, and overturn it onto a plate to release the cake.

Make the frosting:

  • Place the powdered sugar, cocoa powder, vegan buttery spread, and water in a mixing bowl. Mix on medium high speed until smooth. Add more water if the frosting is too thick.
  • Spread or pipe the frosting onto the cake. I used a Wilton 1M tip to pipe the frosting on, but you can use any tip you like, or just spread the frosting on.
  • Enjoy! You can also top this cake with drizzled melted chocolate or powdered sugar and fresh fruit.

Notes

You can use regular flour in this recipe if you are not gluten free.
