Method
Cake Directions
- 1
Prepare the Oven
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Grease a 9-inch round cake pan and line the bottom with parchment paper.

Melt Chocolate and Butter
In a heatproof bowl, combine the dark chocolate and unsalted butter. Melt them together over a pot of simmering water (double boiler method) or in the microwave in short bursts, stirring until smooth.

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

Cool and Remove
Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely. Remove the parchment paper carefully.

Blend and Strain
Using an immersion blender or a regular blender, puree the raspberry mixture until smooth. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve to remove seeds if desired.
