Simple, moist, quick, and easy Gluten Free Chocolate Cake. This recipe has a secret ingredient that amplifies the chocolatey goodness.

I whipped this up and enjoyed it for my birthday, which of course, made my birthday so very sweet! For my birthday cake I combined two of my favorite things – chocolate and cream cheese. You really can’t go wrong with this recipe!

I prefer monk fruit or swerve. Stevia works well too!
You bet! Just keep in mine that this cake will no longer be keto/low carb or (obviously) sugar free.
This moist and delicious chocolate cake is made with almond flour, sweetener, and cocoa powder!
