Cook Mode Prevent your screen from going dark

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line and grease an 8-inch round cake pan with parchment paper.
In a saucepan over low heat, melt the dark chocolate and butter together until smooth. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
In a large bowl, whisk the eggs and sugar until fluffy and light in color.
Slowly mix the melted chocolate into the egg mixture while stirring continuously to prevent scrambling.
Gently fold in the cocoa powder until well combined.
Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for about 25 minutes, until edges pull away but center remains soft.
Cool for 10 minutes before transferring to a plate. Dust with powdered sugar or serve with berries as desired.

Notes

For a light and airy cake, ensure your eggs are at room temperature before whipping.
Do not skip the cooling stage after melting the chocolate; it prevents the batter from cooking the eggs too quickly.
Use high-quality chocolate for maximum flavor impact.
This flourless chocolate cake is not just a dessert; it’s an experience!
Feel free to personalize your flourless chocolate cake by swapping dark chocolate for milk or white chocolate, adding a pinch of sea salt or espresso powder, or topping with fresh berries.
To store, wrap tightly in plastic wrap and keep in the fridge for up to five days. Reheat slices in the microwave for about 10 seconds.
This decadent flourless chocolate cake often tastes even better after resting for a day.
