Ingredients
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract optional
- 1 cup unsweetened chocolate chopped finely * See notes
- 3/4 cup granulated sweetener of choice ** See notes
- 1/2 cup butter dairy free, if needed
- 3 large eggs room temperature
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon espresso powder optional
- 1 cup coconut milk
- 1 1/4 cups chocolate chips of choice
- 1/2 cup cocoa powder
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350F. Grease an 8-inch cake pan and line it with parchment paper, leaving a bit of overhang for easy cake removal.
- In a microwave or a small saucepan, melt the chocolate and butter together, stirring until they are fully combined.
- Add in the granulated sweetener, vanilla extract, and espresso powder if you're using them. Mix well.
- Incorporate the eggs one at a time, gently beating them into the batter until smooth. Gradually add the cocoa powder, mixing until just combined—be careful not to overmix.
- Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan. Bake for about 25 minutes, or until a light crust forms on the top.
- Let the cake cool completely in the pan. Once cooled, use the parchment paper overhang to lift the cake out or carefully flip it onto a plate. Frost as desired and enjoy.
