Flourless Chocolate Layer Cake

We have a towering, all-chocolate situation on our hands. A soft pillow of sweet cocoa with whipped chocolate frosting – this cake is a celebration in and of itself. For our friends who don't tolerate eggs, we use egg-free mayo to achieve the meltingly tender richness you've been craving.

Ingredients

Instructions

Preheat oven to 325ºF. Lightly grease a 9-inch springform pan with coconut oil or avocado oil spray. Line the bottom of the pan with parchment paper that's cut to fit the bottom. See layering instructions here.

In a small bowl, combine the cashew or almond flour, sifted coconut flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. Melt the chocolate chips and cool. In a separate bowl, mix egg substitute with 6 tablespoons of water and let stand 1 minute to thicken. With an electric mixer, add maple syrup, mayo, vanilla, and cooled melted chocolate to the egg replacement. Alternate adding the dry ingredients and the filtered water in two batches each to the egg and mayo mixture. Beat to combine. Pour batter into prepared cake pan, bake for 40–45 minutes, and cool completely before frosting. Chocolate frosting recipe here.
