Hot Fudge Sundae Cake--With a version of Gluten Free and Dairy Free

Grand because you can do this gluten free and dairy free and lowfat and it tastes out of this world!!!

So very yummy!! oh I am happy!! (I found this at a blog that no longer works—But I altered it so it would be gluten free and dairy free--both versions are below!

Hot Fudge Sundae Cake


1 c flour (I used Bob's gluten free all purpose flour mix--It makes a diffence which you use!!) plus I added about 1/2 tsp of xanthan gum.)
3/4 c sugar
2 Tbs unsweetened cocoa (Iused the dark chocolate version for this bottom part)
2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 c milk (I used almond milk)
2 Tbs vegetable oil (I accidently used light olive oil and this was fine!)
1 tsp vanilla
1 c chopped nuts, if desired (I forgot, but less fat if you leave out)
1 c brown sugar
1/4 c baking cocoa (I used the regular, not dark chocolate for this part)
1 3/4 c very hot water
Ice cream, if desired (not me)

Heat oven to 350ºF.

Mix flour, granulated sugar, 2 Tbs cocoa, the baking powder and salt in ungreased square pan, 9x9 inches. Mix in milk, oil and vanilla with fork until smooth. Stir in nuts. Spread in pan.

Sprinkle brown sugar and 1/4 c cocoa over batter. Pour water over batter.

Bake about 40 minutes or until top is dry.(**Note NOTE--Mine took 32 minutes) — however when I used a different gf flor it took 40 minutes. Also I used to have an old oven that cooked things faster 😜
