Directions
{{model.addEditText}} Print- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease an 8 1/2 x 4 1/2-inch loaf pan or an 8-inch square cake pan.
- Sift together the coconut flour and baking powder, mixing to combine; set aside.
- In a large, microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter with the cocoa, stirring until well blended.
- Whisk the sugar, salt, vanilla, and eggs into the butter-cocoa mixture. Add the coconut flour and baking powder, whisking until smooth.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan. Let it rest for 10 minutes.
- Bake the loaf or cake until set, and a cake tester inserted into the middle comes out clean. This will take 35 to 45 minutes for the loaf pan, or 30 to 35 minutes for the square pan.
- Cool the cake in the pan for 30 minutes before turning it out onto a rack to cool completely. The cake is easiest to slice when it's completely cool.

The batter was rather bitter (probably because I used dark cocoa) so I added about 1/3 c more sugar. The cake is incredibly moist and delicious. I decided to top it with coconut pecan frosting...

This is a good, healthy, and tasty cake. However, there are a few changes that would further enhance and compliment this treat. As some of the reviews said, it needs some extra sugar. The out...

No fail. Just don't over bake. Best if slightly underbaked. I can always count on this as a "healthier" treat for office parties and they all love it
