The kids just loved it. I did not have xanthan gum so I used slippery elm; changed the sugar for 1 c of honey; and used almond milk. They were very moist and were gone very quickly!!! I cheated for the frosting and used some Nutella-like spread... Thanks for sharing

Not a bad flavor for gluten free but the texture was way too chewy and a bit dry. I was looking for a good chocolate cake recipe to use for birthdays. Even with icing I was disappointed. I ended up using them as a shortcake with fruit and whip cream to really get them down.

DELICIOUS! I made half a recipe, which made 24 mini cupcakes. I used Bob's Red Mill AP Baking Flour for the flour, Splenda instead of sugar, light sour cream and soy milk. I baked them 13 minutes, and they were perfectly done. Despite having no oil or butter, they were very moist and had a very nice texture. I'm sure no one would be able to tell they were gluten free. The only thing I would do differently is to spray the paper cupcake liners with Pam because they did stick a little. I'm sure I'll make these again.

I havent made this, but I was reading the ingred list and wondered, how about buttermilk instead of the milk and sour cream? Buttermilk makes cakes SO nice and moist! But the recipe looks like a good one!

I found this to be a very easy recipe to make compared to some gluten free recipes. It has good flavour and they turned out great.

I made this in a 9 x 11 pan for my daughter's 35th birthday. She has celiacs disease so we have to be very careful with ingredients. This cake turned out beautifully. Raves all around and no one thought it was gluten free flour.
