Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350ºF and adjust the rack to the middle position. Melt the 1 tablespoon cocoa powder and 1 tablespoon butter in a small saucepan. Using a pastry brush, thoroughly coat the interior of a 12-cup bundt pan.
  2. Place the 3/4 cup cocoa powder, espresso powder, and 6 ounces chocolate chips in a mixing bowl. Pour the hot water over top and then cover with foil. Let sit for 5 minutes. Remove the foil and whisk the chocolate mixture until smooth. Whisk in the sour cream.
  3. Whisk together the almond flour, coconut flour, arrowroot, gelatin, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl.
  4. Place the 12 tablespoons butter, sugar and maple syrup in the bowl of a standing mixer fitted with a paddle. Beat on medium-high for 3 minutes, until light and fluffy. Reduce the mixer to low speed and add the eggs, one at a time, then beat until combined. Add the vanilla. Add the flour mixture in 3 additions, alternating with the sour cream mixture in 2 additions. Add the additional 1 cup of chocolate chips and stir to combine.
  5. Transfer the batter to the prepared bundt pan and smooth the top with a spatula. Bake for 45-50 minutes, until a cake tester comes out with a few crumbs attached. Cool the cake for 10 minutes and then invert it on to a wire rack.. Let cool completely. Serve.
