Introduction

Small chocolate GFCF cake I adapted from a common egg-free/dairy free chocolate cake recipe for family celebrations to be baked in small glass bowl to create small round cake. Smaller servings and replacing some of the sugar with xylitol help reduce the carb load of the gluten-free flour blend.

Ingredients

    3/4 c. Betty Crocker All-purpose rice flour blend
    3 Tblsp. xylitol crystals
    3 Tbsp. sugar
    1 tsp. baking soda
    1/4 tsp. salt.
    3 Tbsp. olive oil (not extra virgin)
    1 Tbsp. white vinegar
    1/2 tsp. vanilla


Tips

I calculated 10 small pieces to be right around 15 carbs per serving so that I could add a topping. If you leave off any topping, serving sizes can be adjusted according to your dietary preferences.


Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Grease small glass straight-sided (or nearly straight sided) bowl.
Combine dry ingredients in small mixing bowl, making sure there are no lumps of cocoa. Add oil, water and vinegar in 3 different spots. Stir just to combine, being careful not to overmix, as the action of the vinegar with the baking soda makes the cake rise and replaces the action of eggs that would be in other cake recipes.
Spread the batter in your prepared pan, smoothing it out on top. Bake at 350 degrees F for 16-20 minutes until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean and edges pull away from pan.
Cool in pan for 10 minutes before removing to cool completely on a rack.
