Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9-inch round cake pan.
- Place the chocolate chips into a microwave-safe bowl. Cook in the microwave for about 2 minutes, stirring every 20 seconds after the first minute, until chocolate is melted and smooth. If you have a powerful microwave, reduce the power to 50 percent.
- Combine the beans and eggs in the bowl of a food processor. Process until smooth. Add the sugar and the baking powder, and pulse to blend. Pour in the melted chocolate and blend until smooth, scraping down the corners to make sure chocolate is completely mixed. Transfer the batter to the prepared cake pan.
- Bake for 40 minutes in the preheated oven, or until a knife inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. Cool in the pan on a wire rack for 10 to 15 minutes before inverting onto a serving plate. Dust with confectioners' sugar just before serving.

CHOCOLATE GARBANZO BEAN CAKE
I actually saw this mentioned on a Weight Watchers board and found the recipe online. I didn't find it on RecipeZarr, so I thought I would add it. My friend calls it Chocolate F*rt Cake! It is different and one way to get some fiber in your diet. I am sure you could play around with an egg substitute and Splenda.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 F. Grease and flour a 9" round cake pan. Melt the chocolate chips in the microwave until chocolate is melted and smooth. Combine beans and eggs in a food processor and process until smooth. Add the sugar and baking powder, and pulse to blend.

Dust with confectioners' sugar just before serving.
Tips:
- Use a food processor to grind the garbanzo beans until they are very fine. This will help the cake to have a smooth texture.
- Be sure to measure the flour correctly. Too much flour will make the cake dry and crumbly.
- Do not overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the cake tough.
- Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Overbaking can make the cake dry.
- Let the cake cool completely before frosting it. This will help the frosting to set properly.
- If you do not have a food processor, you can mash the garbanzo beans by hand. However, this will take more time and effort.

Garbanzo bean chocolate cake is a delicious and healthy dessert that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be enjoyed by people of all ages.
