Ingredients

Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9-inch round cake pan. Line the bottom with parchment paper for easy removal.

  2. 2

    Melt Chocolate and Butter

    In a double boiler or a heatproof bowl over simmering water, melt the dark chocolate and unsalted butter together until smooth. Stir occasionally to combine.

  3. 3

    Mix Sugar and Eggs

    In a separate bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar and eggs until the mixture is pale and slightly thickened.

  4. 4

    Combine Mixtures

    Once the chocolate mixture is melted and slightly cooled, stir it into the egg and sugar mixture. Add vanilla extract and a pinch of salt, mixing until just combined.

  5. 5

    Bake the Torte

    Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the edges are set but the center is still slightly moist.

  6. 6

    Cool and Dust

    Allow the torte to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then carefully invert it onto a serving plate. Remove the parchment paper. Dust the top with cocoa powder before serving.
