Chocolate Fudge Orange Cake

Matthew's mom makes the most amazing chocolate fudge cake, and guess who figured out how to make it gluten free!!

can I get a hallelujah?

because i love you, i'll share the recipe.  you can thank me later.




Coffee-Orange Fudge Cake

1 pkg. Devil’s Food Cake Mix (use betty crocker gluten free mix in a yellow box)

8 oz. sour cream
½ cup Canola oil
½ cup water
4 eggs
4 oz. instant fudge pudding (I use Jello chocolate fudge for gluten free)
¼ cup Starbucks (or other) coffee liqueur……or you can use 2 TBS. instant coffee in ¼ cup of water
2 TBS. finely shredded orange peel (I usually don’t put the orange peel in it)
1 tsp. cinnamon
1 (12 oz.) bag semi-sweet chocolate chips (I use nestles for GF)


Mix the above ingredients together EXCEPT the chocolate chips.
Mix at medium speed for 4 minutes.
Stir in the chocolate chips.
Pour in bundt pan sprayed with Pam (etc.)
Bake at 350 degrees for 50-60 minutes.


FROSTING
3 cups sifted powdered sugar
¼ cup unsweetened coca 
½ cup skim milk
1 ½ tsp vanilla
½ tsp salt

Mix all ingredients together to spreadable consistency.  This frosting hardens quickly, so if it becomes too thick, pop it in the microwave for a couple of seconds.
