Ingredients

Dry ingredients

  • 1 3/4 cups granulated sugar
  • 3/4 cups dutch processed cocoa powder
  • 2 cups gluten free flour (Bob's 1-1 Baking Flour)
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt

Wet ingredients

  • 3/4 cup vegetable oil
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 3 tablespoons flax seed meal (for flax eggs)

Frosting ingredients

  • 1 pound powdered sugar (about 3 cups)
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Instructions 

  • Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line two 8-inch (20 cm) pans with parchment paper.
  • Mix dry ingredients in a large bowl. Whisk wet ingredients in a separate bowl. Combine both, then add brewed coffee and mix until just combined.
