  1. Preheat oven to 180ºC (356ºF). Line a baking tray with parchment paper, set aside.
  2. Combine flour, cocoa, baking powder and baking soda together in a mixing bowl. Set aside.
  3. Using a hand mixer or a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, whisk together coconut oil and coconut sugar in a large mixing bowl until well combined and just beginning to get fluffy.

Notes
Store in an airtight container, in the pantry or refrigerated, for 4-6 days.
*I loveBobs Red Mill 1-to-1 Gluten Free Baking Flour in my baked goods. It works perfectly as an exact swap for regular flour as a 1:1 ratio. You may also use any other gluten free all purpose flour or any regular wheat all purpose flour.
