Garbanzo Bean Chocolate Cake (gluten free)

Before I begin.....

                       THIS IS NOT MY RECIPE!!!!! I CAN NOT GIVE CREDIT WHERE IT IS DUE, 
                       BECAUSE IT WAS  GIVEN TO ME THROUGH FOURTH AND FIFTH PARTIES.

That being said, here is a great wheat-free and gluten- free cake recipe. We tried it the other night and was well received by all.

Garbanzo Bean Chocolate Cake

9" round cake pan, greased
1 1/2 cup semisweet chocolate chips
19 oz can of garbanzo beans, rinsed and drained
4 eggs
3/4 cup white sugar
1/2 tsp baking powder
4 Tbs butter 

Preheat oven to 350*.
Place chocolate chips in a microwave safe bowl with 2 or 3 Tbs of water. Microwave until chocolate is melted, one or two minutes, making sure to stir often. Add more water if necessary.
Combine the beans and eggs in the food processor. 
Process until smooth.
Add sugar and baking soda and continue to blend.
Pour in melted chocolate and blend until smooth. Make sure it is well blended.
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and put into the oven.
Bake for 40 min or until center is clean with a toothpick.
Allow to cool before inverting it onto a serving plate.

This makes one 9" round cake. Top with anything you like! Will hold up under frosting!
Enjoy!
