Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch round cake pan.
-
In a medium bowl, whisk together the gluten-free flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
-
In a large bowl, cream together the butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
-
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the milk. Mix until just combined.
-
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
-
Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then transfer the cake to a wire rack to cool completely.
-
In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, heavy cream, and peppermint extract until smooth.
-
Once the cake has cooled, spread the peppermint glaze over the top. Sprinkle with crushed peppermint candies.
-
Allow the glaze to set for at least 1 hour before serving.
