What’s the first thing you hear when someone is telling you about this amazing gluten free desert recipe you’ve just *got* to try? You can’t even tell it’s gluten free! Of course, most of the time you very well *can* tell that its gluten free. Not to sound cliche, but this gluten free chocolate cake recipe really is so good that you can’t tell its gluten free. I can’t take full credit for this one, since I got the actual chocolate cake recipe from David Lebovitz (you can find the recipe here: http://www.davidlebovitz.com/2005/09/german-chocolat-1/, and I simply substituted the 2 cups of flour for 280 grams of gluten free all purpose flour mix. However, I will take credit for the icing recipe, which you can find below. Who knew a flour less chocolate cake recipe could still turn out so great?
