• 1.5 cups Granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 2 large Eggs
• 1 cup Whole milk
• 0.5 cup Vegetable oil
• 2 teaspoons Pure vanilla extract
• 1 cup Boiling water

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round baking pans with gluten-free flour.

In a large mixing bowl, sift together the gluten-free all-purpose flour, unsweetened cocoa powder, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 25 to 30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Frost and assemble the cake as desired once the layers are completely cool. Enjoy your gluten-free classic chocolate cake!
