1
Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and grease a round cake pan.
2
Melt Chocolate and Butter
In a medium saucepan, melt the dark chocolate and unsalted butter over low heat, stirring continuously until smooth. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
3
Mix Sugar and Eggs
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar and eggs until well combined.
4
Combine Mixtures
Gradually add the melted chocolate mixture to the sugar and egg mixture, stirring until fully incorporated.
5
Add Cocoa and Salt
Sift in the cocoa powder and add the salt. Mix until the batter is smooth and shiny.
6
Bake the Cake
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
7
Cool and Serve
Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Serve with salted caramel, candied pecans, and bourbon-vanilla ice cream.
