Category:     Dessert

Description:
I tinkered with this recipe until I found a gooey, soft, chocolate cake that really holds up as the real thing! Adapted from Solitude1972's recipe. Double the recipe for a two layer cake and bake in two pans!


General applicability:

Closest Thing to Real Chocolate Cake
Green: recipe contains only neutral or a beneficials ingredients for that type.
Yellow: recipe contains an secondary avoid ingredient that may be substituted by a more permissable one.
Orange: contains an avoid in a primary ingredient.



Ingredient list:
  • 1/2 Ghee, butter, or substitute
  • 3/4 Agave Nectar
  • 3 Eggs
  • 3/4 Almond Milk (I used unsweetened cocoa flavored)
  • 2 1/2 teaspoons Baking Powder (or 1 1/2 teaspoons soda)
  • 1/2 Good Quality Unsweetened Cocoa
  • 3/4 Cup Rice Flour
  • 1/2 Cup Amaranth
  • 1/2 Cup Almond Flour
    Note:OPTIONAL 1 teaspoon Xantham Gum (You don't need this, but it really improves the texture and keeps the cake from being crumbly. A definite must if serving this to others and trying to fool them with this cake)


How to make it:
  • Preheat oven to 350
  • You can make this all in a food processor.
  • Place in butter, agave, and eggs, blend til creamy
  • Add Milk and Soda, blend again
  • Add remaining ingredients, and blend.
  • Pour into greased pan and bake 30-45.
  • Let cool, remove from pan, and cool completely before icing.
