How to Make Low Carb Rich Chocolate Cake

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour an 8-inch round cake pan.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the cocoa powder, Splenda, baking powder, and salt. Mix well.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, oil, vanilla extract, and almond flour. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Do not overmix.
  4. Stir in the melted chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
  5. Pour batter into the prepared cake pan and bake for 50-55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs.
  6. Let the cake cool completely in the pan before frosting or serving. If topping with whipped cream and berries, do so just before serving.
