  1. Adjust oven rack to middle position and heat oven to 162C degrees. Grease and then line 2 (6-inch) cake pans with parchment paper. Microwave chocolate and oil together in a bowl at 50 percent power, stirring often, until chocolate is melted, about 2 minutes; whisk smooth and let cool slightly. In a separate bowl, whisk flour blend, baking powder, baking soda, xanthan gum, and salt together.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk eggs and vanilla together. Whisk in sugar until well combined. Whisk in the cooled chocolate mixture and sour cream until combined. Whisk in flour blend mixture until batter is thoroughly combined and smooth. Gently fold in choc chips until thoroughly incorporated.
  3. Portion batter evenly into prepared tin. Bake until cake is set on top and toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean, 35-45 minutes, rotating muffin tin halfway through baking.
