Instructions

1

Melt Chocolate and Butter

Preheat your oven to 375 degrees F and grease an 8-inch round cake pan with cooking spray, then line the bottom with parchment paper. Combine the chopped dark chocolate and butter in a heatproof bowl and melt together in the microwave in 30-second bursts, stirring until completely smooth. Let the mixture cool for 5 minutes.

2

Add Eggs and Bake

Whisk the eggs and a pinch of salt into the cooled chocolate mixture one at a time until fully incorporated and the batter is glossy and smooth. Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top. Bake for 22 to 25 minutes until the top is set and crackly but the center still has a very slight jiggle.

3

Cool and Unmold

Allow the cake to cool in the pan on a wire rack for 15 minutes, during which it will deflate slightly and firm up. Run a thin knife around the edge, then invert onto a serving plate and peel off the parchment. Serve at room temperature or slightly warm dusted with cocoa powder or topped with fresh berries.

Substitutions

Common mistakes
