Ingredients: 1 1/2 cups vegetable oil
2 teaspoons vinegar
1/2 cup sugar-free chocolate syrup (such as Da Vinci® brand)
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
8 ounces cream cheese, softened
1 cup whole wheat flour
3/4 cup vital wheat gluten
1/2 cup almond flour
1 1/2 cup Malitol
3/8 teaspoon Stevia®
4 teaspoons dry unsweetened cocoa
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking soda

Frosting:
1 stick (1/2 cup) butter, softened to room temperature
8 ounces cream cheese, room temperature
1 cup malitol
1/4 teaspoon Stevia®
1 tablespoon heavy cream

Chocolate Drizzle:
1 ounce semi-sweet chocolate
1 tablespoon heavy cream
Instructions: Preheat oven to 350° F.

Blend Together first 6 ingredients. Then add remaining cake ingredients. Mix with electric mixer until smooth. Divide equally between two 9 inch cake pans that have been coated with cooking spray. Bake for 30-40 minutes until the center of the cake springs back or tests dry.

Beat frosting ingredients together until smooth. Coat one cake layer with 1/3 of the frosting, then put on the second layer and frost the sides and top.

Prepare chocolate drizzle: Melt 1 oz. semi-sweet chocolate in a small cup in the microwave. Add a tablespoon of hot cream until thin enough to drizzle over the cake with a spoon.
