My Wheat & Dairy Free Chocolate Sponge Cake

As I've mentioned before, I can't eat wheat or cows milk (believe me, I'd love to, but it doesn't love me!) & there aren't always many sweet treats I can have, so I decided to make something myself!
So, here it is. I'm sharing a secret with you....my chocolate cake recipe & it really is as delicious as it looks!

You will need....

2 x 8" deep Cake Tins
3 x Eggs
5oz Gluten Free Self Raising Flour
1oz Cocoa Powder
1 1/2 teaspoons Gluten Free Baking Powder
6oz Caster Sugar
6oz Dairy Free Spread

Sieve the flour, cocoa powder & baking powder together. Then mix the rest of the ingredients & divide the mixture into the tins (make sure the tins are greased with dairy free spread & line with greaseproof paper) & bake for 20-25 minutes on 170c Fan

For the buttercream....
You will need....
3oz  Dairy Free Spread
7oz Icing Sugar
2oz Cocoa Powder
1tbl Soya Milk

Beat the dairy free spread & sieved icing sugar & sieved cocoa powder together.  Then gradually add the soya milk.  Then spread on one of the sponge cakes & place the other spong cake on top.  Afterward spread the remaining buttercream on the top.  Add whatever decorations you like or leave plain.



Then the final & most important thing....
Scoff & enjoy!

What do you like to bake?  Let me know....
