Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Preheat oven to 350°.
  2. To prepare cake, heat 3/4 cup milk in a small saucepan over medium-low heat 2 minutes or until warm; add chocolate chips, stirring until smooth. Cool.
  3. Weigh or lightly spoon brown rice flour, potato starch, and tapioca flour into dry measuring cups; level with a knife. Combine flours and next 4 ingredients in a bowl; stir with a whisk.
  4. Combine eggs and next 3 ingredients in a bowl; beat with a mixer at low speed until blended. Add chocolate mixture, beating until blended. Add flour mixture alternately with remaining 1 cup milk, beginning and ending with dry ingredients; beat until smooth. Pour batter evenly into 2 (9-inch) round cake pans coated with cooking spray and lined with parchment paper.
  5. Bake at 350° for 25 minutes or until a wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool in pans 10 minutes; remove from pans. Cool completely on a wire rack.
  6. To prepare frosting, combine powdered sugar and cocoa in a large bowl; stir with a whisk. Combine milk and vanilla. Place butter in a separate bowl; beat with a mixer at medium speed until creamy. Add powdered sugar mixture alternately with milk mixture, beating well after each addition until spreading consistency.
  7. Place 1 cake layer on a plate; spread with 1 cup frosting. Top with remaining cake layer. Spread remaining frosting over top and sides of cake. Garnish with raspberries and mint sprigs, if desired.
  8. Somebody get me a glass of milk! I almost forgot what chocolate cake tastes like—thanks for the reminder. Although a lot of gluten-free desserts turn out dry, this cake was very moist. The icing was definitely the icing on the cake ! Very rich and the perfect complement to the cake. —Roxanne D. Osborne
