See all
2 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
1 ½ tsp baking powder
½ tsp baking soda
¼ tsp salt
¾ cup granulated sugar
Chef's tip
Use the same volume. Baking behavior varies by blend: some brown faster or stay softer, while others brown less. Follow the package's baking guidance and start checking a few minutes early.
½ cup vegetable oil
2 large eggs, room temperature
¾ cup buttermilk, room temperature
1 tsp white vinegar
1 tsp vanilla extract
2 tbsp red food coloring

For the frosting

8 oz cream cheese, softened
¼ cup unsalted butter, softened
2 cups powdered sugar, sifted
Chef's tip
Follow the package's conversion to powdered sugar. In frosting or glaze, add liquid gradually - replacements can absorb it differently.
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 pinch salt

Instructions

1
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
2
In a medium bowl, whisk together the gluten free flour blend, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until evenly combined.
