Rich chocolate flavor and moist gateau chocolat - Gluten-free sweets

I baked classical style gateau chocolat blended 55% of cacao bitter chocolate, It have mild and rich chocolate flavor!! Then it have moist, fluffy and good balance of sweet and bitter chocolate taste.
Additionally this is gluten-free, because I use cornstarch instead of wheat flour. Texture became more moist and smoothly for melt in the mouth, it better than use wheat flour. But be careful, you can't stop eat definitely because this is very delicious :)
