Default Corn Free Powdered Sugar

Powdered sugar has cornstarch in it. If you are like me and can't have corn, you can make your own powdered sugar for frostings in a coffee grinder. I use a Cuisinart mini-chopper/grinder with the sharp blade side down. This is a great inexpensive little kitchen gadget that is useful for mincing fresh herbs and onions, or powdering dried herbs, or grinding rice for cream of rice, etc.

Put sugar in grinder in small amounts, about 1/4 cup at a time. Grind until it becomes powdered. You will end up with more than what you started with.

The cornstarch used in commercial powdered sugar is to keep it flowing or to keep it from lumping. How it works is that the powdered sugar absorbs moisture from the air and clumps. Your homemade powdered sugar will not be as fine as commercial powdered sugar, so you probably won't need something to substitute for the cornstarch unless you are worried about it clumping if you store it. In that case, I've read you can add 1 Tbsp of arrowroot or potato starch to 1 cup of homemade powdered sugar.

Default GF Yellow Cake

This is yummy!! Soft, springy, moist...I used coconut milk for the milk and made cupcakes. I frosted a couple of them, but found I liked them better without the frosting.

I couldn't taste any coconut flavor, or the mayonnaise, either.

Next time I think I might use lemon extract instead of the vanilla.

This was submitted by Amy at http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/Gluten-...ke/Detail.aspx

Quote:
INGREDIENTS

* 1 1/2 cups white rice flour
* 3/4 cup tapioca flour
* 1 teaspoon salt
* 1 teaspoon baking soda
* 3 teaspoons baking powder
* 1 teaspoon xanthan gum
* 4 eggs
* 1 1/4 cups white sugar
* 2/3 cup mayonnaise
* 1 cup milk
* 2 teaspoons gluten-free vanilla extract

DIRECTIONS

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and rice flour two 8 or 9 inch round cake pans.
2. Mix the white rice flour, tapioca flour, salt, baking soda, baking powder and xanthan gum together and set aside.
3. Mix the eggs, sugar, and mayonnaise until fluffy. Add the flour mixture, milk and vanilla and mix well. Spread batter into the prepared pans.
4. Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 25 minutes. Cakes are done when they spring back when lightly touched or when a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Let cool completely then frost, if desired.

I just made a delicious chocolate cake. The original recipe called for shortening. I used 1/2 olive oil and 1/2 coconut milk instead (in the same quantity called for for the shortening). It worked beautifully. We have a lovely light and fluffy chocolate cake

You post you made a delicious chocolate cake and don't post the recipe or link. How could you?

LOL, I just wing it anymore, so I couldn't tell you a recipe. I just add a bit of this and a bit of that and I have made it to that point where I can bake beautiful Gluten free, dairy free, sugar free desserts without even needing a recipe! It's a beautiful thing
I will pay attention next time and write it down. I just made up a cookie recipe today that is sinful!
mmm....
