HEY GF (Chocolate Cake Coming Att'cha)! 🙋🏻

The internet is a wonderful* place. I've befriended strangers and been inspired by their love of cooking, crafting and baking. I saw on one such stranger's Instagram a recipe for chocolate cake as being semi healthy, two thoughts rarely used at the same time. Chocolate, cinnamon and almond cake, the recipe is from Food & Wine, doesn't disappoint. OH AND DID I MENTION- THIS IS GLUTEN FREE! 

After the cake was baked I stopped by my friend Claire's house, who has been solidly gluten free for awhile now, to have her try the cake. Being someone who regularly eats gluten free baked goods she was the perfect taste tester! Claire was surprised at how moist this cake is and commented that almond flour can make cakes dense and dry.  

This chocolate cake is moist and delicious, even if it is a little bit of a do' to make. Two bowls, plus your mixing bowl, grease and parchment paper line the pan, separating eggs, whisking to soft peaks, oofh! Give me a nap already! But after all that you pour it into a pan and bake for about an hour. That, and the rest is simple! 

Verdict: go make this cake, you wont regret it. Make it for a friend or loved one who can't or chooses not a eat gluten. Make it for Valentines day and share it or eat it all yourself. Make it for this birthday and stick a candle in it.
