Instructions
-
Preheat oven to 340 degrees, mist a 9 inch round cake pan with cooking spray. I used a coconut spray. Set pan aside .In a medium mixing bowl, break the eggs and egg white and mix well with a whisk. Add the oil, maple syrup, vanilla, and water. Mix well. In a small mixing bowl, add the dry ingredients and incorporate well. Add the dry into the wet ingredients and mix with a rubber spatula until well incorporated. Make sure you dig to the bottom of the bowl to get all the cocoa power mixed in well. Pour batter into prepared pan and bake for 15 to 20 minutes. Try not to over bake. Turn the pan around after 10 minutes for even baking. Check after 15 minutes with a wooden skewer or toothpick. Moist to dry crumbs are what you are looking for. Place pan on a cooling rack. While the cake is cooling, place the chips and milk in a microwave safe bowl and heat for about 20 seconds. Take out mix, put back in for another 10 seconds until the chocolate is melted. Stir until shiny and smooth. Using a small rubber spatula, spread over the cake. Toss some chips over top for garnish.
