Instructions

Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Spray the inside of a 9-inch spring form pan with coconut oil spray. Or if you prefer, line the pan with parchment paper.
Begin by melting the chocolate with the coconut oil. You can do this in a double boiler on the stovetop or in the microwave. I like to melt the chocolate chips in a small glass bowl in the microwave. Start by melting for 20 seconds. Then stir. Keep doing this until the mixture is completely melted. Set aside to cool for 5 minutes.
After the chocolate mixture has cooled to room temperature, mix the eggs and the chocolate together. I like to do this in a stand alone mixer. Beat the mixture on medium high until fluffy.
Next, slowly add in the coconut sugar, while continuing to beat the cake batter mixture. Add in the espresso powder and beat slightly.
Pour the cake batter into the prepared spring form pan. Bake for 45 minutes.
Allow the cake to cool before removing from the spring form pan.
Now you can serve it exactly as is or decorate. I like to dust the top with cacao powder or cocoa powder. You can also dust with powdered sugar. Top with berries like strawberries, raspberries, or orange slices.
