    Flourless Chocolate Kahlua Cake (Gluten-Free)

    Reviewed and edited by a celiac disease expert.

    This recipe comes to us from Lin Goldkrantz.

    Ingredients:
    7 extra large egg whites
    1 cup sugar
    ½ pounds unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
    ½ pound European bittersweet chocolate, broken into small pieces.
    1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
    1 tablespoon espresso (I use strong instant coffee already mixed with water and cooled)
    3 tablespoons Kahlua

    Celiac.com Sponsor (A12):
    Directions:
    Preheat oven to 300F. Grease and flour a 10 inch spring form pan.

    Place egg whites and sugar in a mixing bowl and whip into firm peaks.

    Melt butter over medium heat and add chocolate, stirring till smooth....I do this on low setting in microwave.

    Quickly add vanilla, espresso/coffee, Kahlua and chocolate butter to egg whites and gently fold until smooth. Pour into prepared cake pan and bake on center rack for 40 minutes.

    Remove from oven. Wait 5 minutes and press sides down so the top of cake is even. Cool and refrigerate for 4 hours or until set. Remove cake from pan. Cut with hot knife into 8 pieces. Serve with berries or vanilla ice cream.

    Note: This cake is extremely rich. Do not give overly generous portions. Whipped cream or ice cream cut some of the richness.

    Instead of flouring the springform, I just used wax paper. The batter tastes like fluffy hot chocolate, and the cake is very rich and delicious. It looks very elegant garnished with powdered sugar, then cut into wedges and served with cool whip and fresh fruit (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries - raspberries taste best with it). A+

    This tastes so delicious, but it is terribly crumbly. Any suggestions?

    This recipe comes to us from Chris Silker.
    4 ounces gluten-free bittersweet chocolate
    ½ cup gluten-free butter or margarine
    ¾ cup sugar
    3 eggs, lightly beaten
    ½ cup unsweetened cocoa
    Grease a 7- or 8-inch spring form pan or round pan. Line bottom with a circle of wax or parchment paper and grease paper.
    Break chocolate into pieces and put with butter or margarine into a microwave-safe bowl that will be big enough to ultimately hold all the ingredients. Cover bowl with plastic wrap and microwave until chocolate and butter are melted, being careful not to burn them! In my microwave, it takes no more than a minute and a half.
    Remove from microwave. Stir until chocolate and butter are well mixed. Add sugar and mix well. Add eggs and mix well. Sift cocoa o...

    ½ cup espresso (or very strong coffee)
    ¼ teaspoon salt
    1 tablespoon baking powder
    ¾ cup white sugar
    18 ounces chocolate
    1 cup unsalted butter
    6 eggs
    8 ounces whipping cream
    2 tablespoons powdered sugar
    Preheat oven to 300F degrees. Set aside an un-greased springform pan.
    Add espresso, salt, sugar and baking powder. Stir until completely dissolved and set aside. In microwave oven melt the chocolate, checking for doneness every 30 seconds. Cut the butter into pieces and beat it into chocolate, one piece at a time. Beat in the hot sugar-water. Slowly beat in eggs, one at a time.
    Pour the batter in pan and bake cake at 300F degrees for 45 minutes. The center will still look wet; it will also be a little fallen.
    As the cake cools, w...

      I am so sorry you're going through this bad experience--it's difficult when your own lived reality of cause and effect is dismissed by the very professionals meant to help you. You are absolutely right—your violent physical reactions are not "what you think," but undeniable data points, and it's a form of medical gaslighting to be told otherwise, especially w...

      Celiac getting dentures

      Hello, no I had to have them re done and then used a liner over the top. Many dentists are not aware of the celiac effects. Best of luck. There is other material, yet, very expensive.
