Chocolate Stripper Cake


Alright, so that title sounded really dirty :). This is a way late post from my husband's birthday. I wanted to try a chocolate gluten free recipe and decided to spice it up a bit with Stripper Barbie coming out of the center. Needless to say, it was a big hit.

Gluten Free Chocolate Cake
1 1/2 cups coconut flour
1/2 cup cocoa
1 1/2 cups sugar, divided
2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt
8 large eggs, separated into yolks and whites (room temp)
1 1/2 cups buttermilk
1 cup canola oil
1 tsp vanilla
1/2 tsp cream of tartar

1. Preheat oven to 325. Mix dry ingredients, setting aside 1/4 cup of sugar. In a separate bowl mix yolks, buttermilk, and vanilla. Combine.

2. In mixer bowl, whisk egg whites and cream of tartar to soft peaks, then add remaining sugar and mix until glossy, firm peaks form. Fold 1/4 of the whites into the mixture, then the rest.

3. Transfer to a greased bundt pan (I used two 8 inch rounds) and bake for 1 hour 20 minutes (I tested with toothpicks frequently after the 40 minute mark).
