This healthier Chocolate Avocado Cake is super chocolatey, perfectly sweet, and nutritionally balanced with healthy fats, whole grains, lots of fiber, and a hit of protein! It's just as rich, and chocolatey as classic chocolate cake, except this is made without the butter, oil, regular white sugar, and bleached flour!
