Directions:
For the Cake:
- Line an 8x8in (20x20cm) baking pan with parchment paper, leaving a 2in (5cm) overhang on two sides for easy lifting. Set it aside.
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°F) for about 5 minutes before baking the cake.
- In a medium bowl, sift the oat flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
- Add the chocolate chips and stir until the chocolate chips are completely coated with the dry ingredients mixture. Set it aside.
- In a large bowl, place the eggs and whisk for about 2-3 minutes. Add the yogurt, honey, and vanilla. Whisk until well combined.
- Add the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined.
- Pour the mixture into the prepared pan and smooth the top.
- Bake for about 25 to 30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean (time may vary depending on the oven).
- Let it cool completely at room temperature and unmold the cake.
For the chocolate sauce:
- In a medium bowl, place the honey and cocoa powder. Stir until it forms a chocolate sauce. At first, it looks like the cocoa powder won’t dissolve, but keep stirring until smooth and shiny.
- Spread the chocolate sauce over the cake and sprinkle chocolate chips on top.
- Cut into squares and serve.
- You can store this cake in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3-4 days.
