Slimming Friendly Chocolate Cake

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 180C / 350F. Spray a 18cm/7inch springform cake tin with cake release or low calorie cooking spray. Line the bottom with baking paper.
2. Add all the ingredients into a food processor or a smoothie maker such as Nutribullet. Blitz until you have a smooth, quite runny, batter.
3. Transfer the batter into your prepared tin.
4. Bake for 35-40 minutes until well risen, springy to the touch and just starting to come away from the edges of the tin.
5. Cool the cake in the tin for 10 minutes then carefully turn out onto a plate. Allow the cake to cool completely before adding any toppings.
7. Drizzle the cake with a little melted chocolate or use a low calorie syrup like Sweet Freedom Choc Shot.
8. Serve with fresh fruit like strawberries or raspberries or serve warm with a little light custard.
