Ingredients

25g cocoa or cacao powder
1 teaspoon gluten-free baking powder
175g muscovado sugar
175g softened butter
3 large free-range eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
50g dark chocolate melted
200g softened butter
200g icing sugar
200g dark chocolate melted
Instructions
1-First, preheat the oven to 180°C and line two 20cm sandwich tins with baking parchment, then butter the sides to prevent sticking.
2-Combine all the cake ingredients in a food processor and blend until smooth, scraping the sides as needed to get an even mixture.
3-Divide the batter evenly between the tins and bake for 30 minutes, or until the cakes are springy and cooked through.
4-After baking, let the cakes cool on a wire rack before moving on to the frosting.
5-For the fudge frosting, blend all frosting ingredients in a clean food processor until smooth and creamy.
6-Use one-third of the frosting to sandwich the two cakes together, spread another third on top, and smooth the rest around the sides for a polished finish.
7-Once assembled, decorate with chocolate shavings or fudge pieces if you like, and enjoy your rich gluten free chocolate cake.
