Skinny Gluten Free Chocolate Cake

Skinny Gluten Free Chocolate Cake

I created this gluten free chocolate cake recipe with coconut flour when I received a sample of CooKoo for Coconut Organic Flour. My first thought was that one sure way to think healthy and skinny is to increase the fiber in your diet and consume healthier fats.

This is the best dessert I could possibly think of serving on Thanksgiving out of all of my gluten free dessert recipes. It not only fits in perfectly with the holiday, but it contains tons of chocolate. The filling contains white chocolate, cream cheese, and pumpkin puree. The crust of this gluten free pumpkin cheesecake is is made of chocolate cookies and is covered with a thin layer of pumpkin chocolate ganache.
