I have made this exclusively with King Arthur Measure for Measure GF flour (+ dairy free milk) for years and always had perfect results! Everything is subbed 1:1. My favorite chocolate cake recipe!

In reply to Andrew Park. Hi Andrew! Sorry about that. I like Ghirardelli or Callebaut but if you're looking at something easier to find then I'd recommend Lindt.

In reply to Pat. Hi Pat! It should make 18-24 depending on size. Note that the batter rises a LOT so don't fill them more than half full.

Just wondering how many cupcakes this recipe makes, if you know. Thanks.

In reply to AA. Hi AA! Yes but I would 1.5x the recipe unless you want thinner layers. If so then be sure to reduce the baking time.

In reply to Natasha. Hi Natasha! For the cake itself you can try subbing in a non-dairy milk and 1 Tbsp lemon juice. The avocado butter will not work for this style of frosting though. I'd recommend a more standard chocolate buttercream if you're substituting.

What kind of dairy substitute can I make? My fiancé is lactose intolerant so he cannot do dairy. I know avocado butter is a good butter substitute but what can I do as a buttermilk substitute
