Chocolate Torte

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Melt Chocolate and Butter

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a double boiler, melt the bittersweet chocolate and unsalted butter together, stirring until smooth. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.

  2. 2

    Mix Sugar and Eggs

    In a large bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar and eggs until well combined. Add the melted chocolate mixture and vanilla extract, and mix until smooth.

  3. 3

    Add Cocoa Powder

    Sift in the cocoa powder and gently fold it into the mixture until just combined.

  4. 4

    Bake the Torte

    Grease a 9-inch round cake pan and pour the batter into it. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the edges are set but the center is still slightly soft. Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes before inverting onto a wire rack to cool completely.
