Preparation Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and grease a round 8-inch cake pan. Line the bottom with parchment paper for easy removal.

  2. 2

    Melt Chocolate and Butter

    In a medium saucepan, melt the dark chocolate and unsalted butter over low heat, stirring until smooth. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.

  3. 3

    Mix Sugar and Eggs

    In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar and eggs until well combined and slightly frothy.

  4. 4

    Combine Mixtures

    Slowly add the melted chocolate mixture to the egg mixture, stirring gently until combined. Add the vanilla extract and sea salt, mixing well.

  5. 5

    Bake the Torte

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

  6. 6

    Cool and Serve

    Allow the torte to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before inverting onto a serving plate. Dust with cocoa powder before slicing and serving.
