Now, which one is correct? I'd like to make the cake but not sure which one to use. Please help!

I am also celiac and a baker and I am going to try your "no frills" choc cake. I really like the plates you have the cake on in the picture you took of the cake slice. I collect milk glass and it reminds me of that. Keep cooking GF! Sandra I recently discovered your blog and I love it. I am also celiac and a baker and I am going to try your “no frills” choc cake.

I really should specify that because it does affect the leavening action. I need to go back and check that in my recipes. Sorry for the confusion! Stahl- It is a GREAT idea to freeze something for the upcoming trimester! I did that with my second baby and it worked out really well on days I wasn't up to cooking. You seem to have a good rush of energy today! I hope the cakes turned out well for you. I don't bake with cornstarch much (it seems to me I am a little sensitive to it) but I am glad the cake worked out. Rick- Yes, I am referring to Dutch processed cocoa.

Other than issues with my 'clomping around' in the kitchen which made the cake fall a little, this came out wonderfully! I have enough cake to freeze ahead (Which I have done as of last night) For the time in the next trimester that I don't feel like cooking, or we're at my inlaws and I need something GF and good to eat :) The icing is really delish! I Never would have thought of making an icing using sour cream and whipping cream! The only thing I changed with that is that I used a more bittersweet chocolate than I usually do, and it seems to really balance out the sweetness of the cake itself. :) Thanks for posting this one! I think today if I am up to it, I might just make the carrot-cake recipe I saw you posted ;) LOL Howdy, I made this one yesterday and subbed cornstarch for the sorghum.

I think most dutch-processed cocoa is gluten-free, but you will have to check with the manufacturer. I just use Hershey’s cocoa.
