Ingredients
8 oz (225 g) dark chocolate, chopped
1/2 cup (115 g) unsalted butter, room temperature
4 large eggs
1 cup (200 g) granulated sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease an 8-inch round cake pan and line the bottom with parchment paper.
- Melt dark chocolate and butter together over a double boiler or in the microwave in short bursts, stirring until smooth.
- Remove from heat and whisk in sugar until fully combined.
- Add eggs one at a time, whisking well after each addition until the batter is thick and glossy.
- Stir in vanilla extract and salt.
- Pour batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top.
- Bake for 20–25 minutes, until the edges are set but the center is still slightly soft.
- Cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then invert onto a wire rack and let cool completely.
- Dust with cocoa powder or powdered sugar and serve with fresh berries or whipped cream.
Notes
Use high-quality chocolate (60–70% cocoa) for the best flavor.
Do not overbake — the center should remain slightly soft for a fudgy texture.
Serve at room temperature for the best flavor and consistency.
Store at room temperature for 2 days or refrigerate up to 5 days.
Freeze up to 2 months; thaw overnight in the refrigerator before serving.
