Cake Ingredients

Method

Cake Directions

  1. 1

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease an 8-inch round cake pan.

  2. 2

    Melt Chocolate and Butter

    In a heatproof bowl, combine the dark chocolate and unsalted butter. Melt them 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 well combined. Add the melted chocolate mixture and stir until combined.

  4. 4

    Add Vanilla and Salt

    Stir in the vanilla extract and a pinch of salt to the batter until fully incorporated.

  5. 5

    Bake the Cake

    Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is set and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.

  6. 6

    Cool and Serve

    Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before serving. Optionally, dust with cocoa powder or serve with whipped cream.
