Recipe: German Chocolate Cake

Hey there, Ms. P’s Nation!

Ready to treat yourself to something truly decadent? Today, we’re sharing a recipe that proves gluten-free can be just as rich, moist, and downright irresistible as the classics: gluten-free German chocolate cake!

At Ms. P’s, we believe living gluten-free should never mean giving up flavor or fun. Gone are the days of dry, crumbly, or “almost good” desserts. This cake is here to show you what gluten-free baking can really do.

And while many people come to gluten-free living out of necessity, others find it brings unexpected benefits like better digestion, more energy, and a new appreciation for real, wholesome ingredients. No matter your reason, we’re here to make your gluten-free journey as delicious as possible.

What You’ll Need

• 1 cup gluten-free flour mix
• 1/2 cup cocoa powder (we love mixing in cacao for extra richness!)
• 1 tsp baking soda
• 1/4 tsp Himalayan salt
• 1 cup organic brown sugar
• 1 1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract
• 1/2 cup almond milk
• 1/2 cup softened butter
• 1 egg
• 3/4 cup hot coffee
  
  

How to Make It

1. Preheat oven to 350°F and lightly spray your cake pans with olive oil spray.
2. Cream together butter, brown sugar, egg, almond milk, and vanilla until smooth.
3. In a separate bowl, whisk flour, cocoa, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
4. Slowly mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients.
5. Stir in the hot coffee until the batter is fully combined (don’t worry if it looks a bit thin—this is what makes it so moist!).
6. Bake for 30–35 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.

The aroma alone will make your kitchen feel like pure bliss. 

Once cooled, slice and savor this chocolatey masterpiece. Whether you're celebrating something big or just treating yourself to a cozy fall evening, this recipe is proof that gluten-free can be every bit as decadent as the classics.
