How to Make Easy Diabetic Chocolate Cake

  1. In a bowl, sift together 1 cup soy flour, ¼ cup unsweetened cocoa powder, ½ teaspoon salt, and 1 teaspoon baking soda.
  2. Add 1 large egg, ¼ cup Splenda (or other sugar substitute), ⅓ cup oil (vegetable or canola), and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  3. Mix until thoroughly combined. The batter will be thick.
  4. Line a 6-ounce microwave-safe ramekin or mug with a coffee filter or parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal.
  5. Pour batter into the prepared ramekin.
  6. Microwave on high for approximately 1 minute, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Microwave times may vary; start with 1 minute and add 15-second increments as needed.
  7. Carefully remove the cake from the ramekin using the coffee filter/parchment paper overhang. Let cool completely on a paper towel.
  8. While the cake cools, prepare the frosting (recipe below).
  9. Once cooled, carefully slice the cake horizontally to create two layers.
  10. Frost the bottom layer, replace the top layer, and frost the entire cake. Decorate with fresh strawberry slices.
