Decadent Fat-free Chocolate Cake

Preheat oven to 350°F and spray a 9-inch round cake pan with nonstick cooking spray.

Combine flour, unsweetened cocoa, corn starch, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl, then whisk together until evenly blended.

In a separate bowl, whisk together sugar, water, egg whites, and Karo light corn syrup until well combined and slightly foamy.

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined, being careful not to overmix.

Transfer the batter to the prepared cake pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.

Bake in the preheated oven for 32–35 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean or with only a few moist crumbs.

Remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then turn out onto a wire rack to cool completely before serving.
