Gluten-free Double Chocolate Mint Cake
I always love to try new things, and So Delicious Dairy Free has come out with some new products that are so very exciting. I decided that I was going to get creative today and make a cake. I love chocolate and I love mint and the two together you sure can't beat, with that combo I made a Gluten-free Double Chocolate Mint Cake that is also dairy free. I hope you will enjoy this cake as much we do.
You don't have to get fancy with this cake and can make it in a 9x13 pan as well.
