Allergy Free Chocolate cake with Dark Chocolate frosting!

I made this cake for my son's 1st birthday, it was a big hit, especially with Jaxon! I think everyone needs a good chocolate cake recipe. :)


Allergy Free Chocolate Cake with Dark Chocolate Frosting

1c sorghum flour
1c brown rice flour
1/2c tapioca starch
1 1/4c cocoa powder
1 tsp. guar gum
1c raw honey
3/4c -1c sucanat
2 1/2 tsp. baking soda
1 1/2 tsp. baking powder
1 1/2 tsp. Redmond's real salt
1T flax meal or chia seed mixed with 3T applesauce
1 1/4c coconut milk
1/2c plus 2T coconut oil
1 1/2 tsp. vanilla
1 1/4c warm water

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. You can grease 2 8" cake pans or do 1 big 9X13" pan (which is what I did). Dust bottom of the pan with a small amount of cocoa powder. Blend all of your wet ingredients. Mix all of the dry ingredients and mix into the wet ingredients. Pour into pan and bake for approx. 45-60 mins, or until toothpick comes out clean. Let cool completely before you frost!

Frosting

1 pkg. chocolate chips ( I use enjoy life brand )
1/4c cocoa
1/4c boiling water
1c organic shortening ( I used coconut oil and it worked but it was a little oily)
1/4c powdered sugar (I used homemade powdered sugar)
pinch of salt
1T coconut milk

Melt the chocolate chips over low heat. Set aside. In separate bowl combine cocoa and boiling water. Mix in rest of the ingredients and mix for 3 mins. Slowly pour into melted chocolate chips and mix well. Frost your cake, get a fork and go for it! Enjoy!
