Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour three 9-inch round cake pans.
-
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the gluten-free flour blend, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
-
In a separate bowl, combine the unsweetened applesauce, sugar, vegetable oil, vanilla extract, and eggs. Mix well.
-
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the milk. Mix until just combined.
-
Stir in the hot water until the batter is smooth.
-
Divide the batter evenly among the prepared cake pans.
-
Bake for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
-
Remove from the oven and let the cakes cool in the pans for 10 minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
-
Meanwhile, prepare the chocolate mousse filling. Melt the semi-sweet chocolate in a heatproof bowl set over a saucepan of simmering water.
-
In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream and powdered sugar until stiff peaks form.
-
Fold the melted chocolate into the whipped cream until well combined.
-
Once the cakes have cooled, spread a layer of the chocolate mousse filling on top of one cake layer. Place another cake layer on top and repeat the process.
-
Finally, place the third cake layer on top and frost the entire cake with the remaining chocolate mousse filling.
-
Refrigerate the cake for at least 1 hour before serving.
