Chocolate Torte

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Melt the Chocolate

    In a double boiler, melt the dark chocolate and unsalted butter together until smooth. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.

  2. 2

    Mix the Batter

    In a mixing bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar and eggs until light and fluffy. Gradually stir in the melted chocolate mixture. Add the flour and vanilla extract, mixing until just combined.

  3. 3

    Bake the Torte

    Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Pour the batter into a greased 9-inch round cake pan. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the edges are set and the center is slightly soft. Allow to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Once the torte is completely cooled, slice and serve with a drizzle of Ghirardelli caramel sauce and a scoop of Haagen-Dazs vanilla ice cream on the side.
