GLUTEN-FREE WACKY DEPRESSION ERA CHOCOLATE CAKE



Gluten-Free Wacky Depression Era Chocolate Cake image

Gluten-free and vegan chocolate cake. Ideally, let it sit a few hours before covering; cover well as it dries out more quickly than other traditional cakes. I don't know why, but it seems better a day or two after it's made, perhaps because it takes that long to set up.

WACKY CHOCOLATE DEPRESSION CAKE



Wacky Chocolate Depression Cake image

This is a dense, but very moist cake, and so easy to make. It's not overpowering with chocolate. Fluffy frosting mixes up in seconds. Change up the pudding in the frosting to your liking. I used vanilla tonight. Mix all in one bowl, and no eggs. My photo's
