How Do You Make Gluten-Free Chocolate Cake?
If you’re on a gluten-free diet, you can still enjoy many of the pleasures that you enjoyed on a regular diet. If you miss chocolate cake, this gluten-free cake will fit the bill. It’s light, fluffy, rich and oh, so chocolaty. Oil four 9-inch round cake pans and line the bottoms of the pans with circles of parchment paper. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Melt the bittersweet chocolate in a small, heavy saucepan over low heat, stirring constantly. Cool the melted chocolate to lukewarm. Beat the egg yolks, 2/3 cup sugar and the salt for about 3 minutes, or until the mixture turns very pale and thick. Stir the melted chocolate into the mixture. Beat 12 egg whites in a very large stainless steel mixing bowl, with clean beaters, until it forms stiff peaks. Add the remaining sugar and continue to beat. Gently fold 1/3 of the egg whites into the chocolate mixture. Once the mixture is blended, carefully fold in the remaining egg whites. Spread the cake batter evenly in four circular cake pans
