Flourless Chocolate Cake
You will need:
200g high-quality dark chocolate
200g unsalted butter
200g granulated sugar
5 large eggs
1 tsp vanilla extract
A pinch of salt
Cocoa powder for dusting
Instructions
- Start by preheating your oven to 180°C (350°F) and greasing a 9-inch round cake pan.
- In a heatproof bowl, melt the chocolate and butter together over a pan of simmering water. Stir until smooth, then remove from heat.
- In a separate bowl, beat the eggs and sugar together until light and fluffy. Add the vanilla extract and a pinch of salt.
- Gradually fold the chocolate mixture into the egg mixture, ensuring it's well combined.
- Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and bake for about 25-30 minutes, or until a skewer inserted into the middle comes out clean.
- Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then turn it out onto a wire rack to cool completely.
- Before serving, dust the cake with cocoa powder.
