Developing new recipes often takes time and lots of trial and error… We often have to make a new recipe two or three times to get it just right (if not more!). We nailed this Gluten Free Chocolate Yogurt Cake with Strawberry Coulis Recipe the very first time we made it!! Honestly, I would have loved making it a few times in a row- it’s that good!
I absolutely LOVE this twist on a traditional chocolate cake! The SO Delicious Unsweetened Plain Coconutmilk Yogurt Alternative is the star of this recipe. It makes this cake SO moist and delicious!
To keep it gluten free, we used a mixture of my favorite grain free flours: cassava, almond, and coconut. The cocoa powder also acts as a “flour” of sorts in this recipe. To keep this recipe dairy free, we used SO Delicious Unsweetened Plain Coconutmilk Yogurt Alternative and ghee (or coconut oil). You’ll be surprised how absolutely rich this cake is!
Believe me when I say that this cake is just so good, that you will find excuses to make it again and again.
