Ingredients

  • 1-1/2 cup Milk Or Semi-sweet Chocolate
  • 15 ounces, weight Can Chick Peas, Rinsed And Drained
  • 4 whole Large Eggs
  • 1/3 cups Stevia Baking Blend (or 3/4 Cup White Sugar)
  • 1/2 teaspoons Baking Powder
  • Garnish: Powdered Sugar, Chocolate Curls, And/or Mixed Berries

Method

  • Preheat oven to 350 F. Completely grease or spray a springform pan or a 9-inch round pan. If you are using a round pan line the bottom with parchment paper.
  • 1. Melt the chocolate chips using a double boiler or by placing them in a bowl and heating them in the microwave in 30 second increments until the chocolate is completely melted. Set aside and allow to slightly cool.
  • 2. Drain and thoroughly rinse the chickpeas with cool water. Make sure that you shake all the excess water off the beans. Place the beans in a food processor or blender along with the melted chocolate. Pulse until the beans and chocolate are well mixed and smooth. One at a time add the eggs and pulse to combine, making sure each is well incorporated before adding the next.
  • 3. Once all the eggs are added, add the stevia and baking powder and continue to pulse until you get a well mixed and smooth batter. Pour the batter into the pan and bake for 35 to 40 minutes or until a toothpick is inserted into the center and it comes out clean. Remove the pan from the oven and set it on a rack. Allow to cool for about 15 minutes before removing cake from the pan. Once the cake is completely cooled garnish with a little powdered sugar and some berries.
