Preheat the oven to 400 F. Spray a 9-inch springform cake pan with cooking spray and line it with parchment paper.
Melt the chocolate and olive oil together in a heatproof bowl set over a pan of boiling water. Stir until melted. Take the bowl off the heat and let it cool for 15 minutes. Once cool, add the espresso and mashed avocado.
Separate the egg yolks from the whites. Whisk the yolks with the sugar until lightly pale. Stir in the chocolate avocado mixture.
In a mixing bowl, whisk egg whites to stiff peaks. Gently fold this into the chocolate mixture.
Pour batter into prepared cake pan and bake for 15 minutes. Let the cake cool completely before serving. Serve with whipped cream if desired.
