Steps
Cut the avocado in half and remove the pit. Scoop out the flesh with a spoon. Put it in the blender jar with the eggs and sugar.
Blend until you get a smooth and velvety cream. Add the grated orange zest, juice, flour, and baking powder. Blend again.
Add the dark chocolate chips and mix with a spatula. Grease a 9-inch mold with oil. Pour in the batter and level it with a spatula.
Bake at 350°F in a preheated static oven. Bake for 45 minutes, do the toothpick test; if it doesn’t come out dry, extend the baking for another 5 minutes.
Remove from the oven and let cool. Unmold onto a serving plate and sprinkle with powdered sugar.
