Gluten-Free Chocolate Cake or Cupcakes

As promised, here is another WINNER in the search for yummy (& healthy) gluten-free food. I found this recipe–surprise, surprise–on Pinterest. I made it into cupcakes, thinking I would have leftovers to freeze for later… HA! No such luck!

These were made in a Mega Muffin tin. I whipped up a frosting of cream cheese, powdered sugar and vanilla flavoring.

I didn’t alter this recipe, but next time, I do plan to reduce the cocoa slightly and/or increase the vanilla flavoring. It was a bit like dark-chocolate, which I found to be a bit too rich. I may attempt to reduce the sugar as well, and replace it with Stevia.

YUMMY!

 Oh, and the best part about this recipe? It’s made from cooked quinoa–high in protein and fiber–and my kids had NO clue! 😉
