Sweet & Salty Chocolate Torte Recipe

Torte Directions

1. 1

   Prepare the Oven

   Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and grease a 9-inch round cake pan.

   Melt Chocolate and Butter

   In a heatproof bowl, combine the dark chocolate and unsalted butter. Melt together over a pot of simmering water, stirring until smooth. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.

3. 3

   Mix Sugar and Eggs

   In a separate bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar and eggs until light and fluffy.

   Combine Mixtures

   Gradually add the melted chocolate mixture to the egg and sugar mixture, stirring continuously to combine.

   Add Flour and Salt

   Sift in the all-purpose flour and sea salt, folding gently until just combined.

   Bake the Torte

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

7. 7

   Cool and Serve

   Allow the torte to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack. Once cooled, dust with powdered sugar and sprinkle with flaky sea salt before serving.
