Ingredients:
- 250g of dark chocolate (at least 70% cacao)
- 150g of unsalted butter
- 150g of granulated sugar
- 3 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
- 100g of unsweetened cocoa powder
- a pinch of salt
Kitchen Tools Needed:
- mixing bowl
- whisk
- 9-inch round cake pan
- parchment paper
- oven
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 190°C (375°F) and line the bottom of a 9-inch round cake pan with parchment paper.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the dark chocolate and unsalted butter. Melt them together over a double boiler or in the microwave, stirring until smooth and fully combined.
- Once melted, remove from heat and whisk in the granulated sugar until well blended.
- Add the eggs, one at a time, whisking well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
- Sift the unsweetened cocoa powder and salt into the chocolate mixture, and fold gently until no dry cocoa powder remains, being careful not to overmix.
- Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs but not wet batter.
- Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then carefully remove it and place it on a wire rack to cool completely before serving.
