You Can't Get Enough of This Stuff!

My first experience with flourless cake was as a teen while serving at a local restaurant. That particular one had a lot of similarity to cheesecake, only chocolate. I couldn't get enough of the stuff then and have been making differing versions myself ever since.

I served this particular fudge gluten-free chocolate cake recipe to a dear, gluten free friend who's opinion I hold very highly. To my surprise, she claimed it the best flourless chocolate cake she had ever eaten. I hope you all feel the same way!

My husband recommends pairing this with our creamy whipped cream!
