Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, whisking continually until the batter is smooth and free of lumps.

Fold in the dark chocolate chips gently, distributing them evenly throughout the batter.

Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 28-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.

Optionally, dust with powdered sugar or top with your favorite high-protein frosting before slicing and serving.
