Description
This flourless chocolate cake is a rich, dense, and indulgent dessert that’s perfect for chocolate lovers. With no flour used, it has a naturally gluten-free, fudgy texture that melts in your mouth. The deep chocolate flavor combined with a slightly crisp top and soft center makes it irresistible. It’s simple to prepare yet elegant enough for special occasions.

Ingredients:

  • 200g dark chocolate (high quality)
  • 100g unsalted butter
  • ¾ cup sugar
  • 3 large eggs
  • ¼ cup cocoa powder
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions:

1. Preheat & Prepare Pan
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Grease a round cake pan and line it with parchment paper to prevent sticking.

2. Melt Chocolate & Butter
In a heatproof bowl, melt the dark chocolate and butter together using a double boiler or microwave in short intervals. Stir until smooth and glossy. Let it cool slightly.

3. Mix Wet Ingredients
In another bowl, whisk the eggs and sugar until light and slightly fluffy. Add vanilla extract and mix well.

4. Combine Mixtures
Slowly pour the melted chocolate mixture into the egg mixture, stirring continuously to combine smoothly.

5. Add Dry Ingredients
Sift in cocoa powder and add a pinch of salt. Gently fold everything together until you get a smooth, thick batter.

6. Bake the Cake
Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top. Bake for 20–25 minutes. The edges should be set, but the center should remain slightly soft.

7. Cool & Serve
Let the cake cool completely before removing from the pan. It will firm up as it cools. Slice and serve as is or with fresh berries, cream, or chocolate sauce.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate for best flavor
  • Do not overbake; the center should stay fudgy
  • Chill slightly for a denser texture

This flourless chocolate cake is simple, elegant, and incredibly delicious—perfect for any dessert table! 🍫🍰
