I think this is the best low-calorie dessert I have ever made! It’s chocolate cake with chocolate chips and a creamy glaze. Sooo good!
The melty chocolate chips make it taste similar to a chocolate lava cake. And it’s surprisingly filling too due to the high fiber content, so you won’t end up craving more. I’m going to call this the perfect chocolate dessert for weight loss.
