Almond Flour Hot Cocoa Cake

December 10, 2024

This post is sponsored by Bob’s Red Mill. The opinions and text are all mine. #ShareHomemadeGoodness #Ad

If you love baking during the holidays, then I have a must make recipe for you..

Almond Flour Chocolate Cake.. but make it festive! I always use Bob’s Red Mill Almond Flour in my GF and healthier option baked-goods. They truly elevate my cookies, cakes and more.

While you are our shopping, add Bob’s Red Mill flours to your shopping list as you gather your holiday baking ingredients. They offer all types of flours for different dietary and baking needs such as:

❤️GF 1 to 1 Baking Flour

❤️Unbleached White All-Purpose Flour

❤️100% Stone Ground Whole Wheat Flour

❤️Super-Fine Almond Flour

❤️& More

My personal favorite that I use here in my go-to Almond Flour Chocolate Cake recipe is the Bob’s Red Mill Super-Fine Almond Flour. I use it in cakes, cookies, minute mug cakes, and more! Even if you are not gluten free, the Bob’s Red Mill Almond Flour is a delicious option for your holiday baked goods.

I use this Almond Flour Chocolate Cake recipe often. It is yummy and flavorful as is, but it also makes a great base for other cakes. To dress it up and add a festive touch, I simply topped with marshmallows, chocolate syrup and peppermint crunch to transform a simple chocolate cake into a Hot Cocoa Chocolate Cake fit for holiday parties, festive gatherings and every celebratory event in between. Bonus points if you use mini candy canes to make a heart in the middle as pictured!
