Gluten Free Chocolate Fudge Bundt Cake

 

 

 

I wanted to make a gluten free chocolate cake with a bundt tin and found this divine gluten free chocolate bundt cake recipe after doing a search.

Of course I changed some ingredients and added the icing and decorations. I needed a gluten free chocolate cake for a Christmas party I was going to and found this chocolate bundt cake recipe.

At this party two other people were on a gluten free diet as well so three of us needed to be satisfied and satisfied we were.

This gluten free chocolate bundt cake got rave reviews from one of the teenage boys who was at the party and he ended up having two slices much to my delight.

He said it was MasterChef quality and wouldn't stop raving about the cake all night and asked me to make it for the New Years party which I will do gladly.

I was told to make sure to get a New Years topper though don't use the Christmas one. Hahahah boys are funny.

This was a hit. So easy to make and total fool proof!

Enjoy.

Gluten Free Chocolate Fudge Bundt Cake

Ingredients
1 1/2 cups caster sugar
1 3/4 cups plain gluten free flour
3/4 cup baking cocoa
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon gluten-free baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
2 large eggs, room temperature
1 cup lactose free or dairy-free yogurt
1/2 cup light olive oil
1 teaspoon gluten free vanilla extract
1 cup hot water
½ cup chocolate chips

Icing
1 1/2 cups icing sugar sifted
1/4 cup margarine with olive oil
1/3 cup water

Instructions
Preheat oven to 350°F/180C. Grease a 10-inch/25cm Bundt cake pan; set aside.

In a large bowl, combine sugar, flour, cocoa, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.

In a separate bowl combine the eggs, yoghurt, oil and vanilla until combined.

Then add wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and beat on medium speed for 2 minutes.

Add hot water and stir until combined.

Stir in chocolate chips.

Pour into pan.

Bake for 60 - 75 minutes or until top is firm but still moist inside. Since this is a fudge cake inserted a toothpick is not appropriate as it will come out wet.

Cool in pan for 10 minutes before removing from pan to a wire rack.

Once cake is cooled make icing sugar.


NOTE: I made up the icing sugar recipe as I went along so I didn't measure anything. You need a somewhat thick consistency so start with a little of each ingredient until you get the correct consistency. So a little icing sugar than margarine than water.

Once you have correct consistency spoon gently over cake until covered as above.

The stars were bought from Woolworths supermarket in the baking aisle. So look out for a box of stars. The Christmas decoration I got from eBay but I am sure you can find in any good baking store. Store in an airtight refrigerate until ready to serve.
