Dry Ingredients

Method

Preparation

1

Preheat the Oven

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9-inch round cake pan with butter or line it with parchment paper.

2

Melt the Chocolate

In a double boiler or microwave, melt the chopped dark chocolate and butter together until smooth. Stir occasionally to avoid burning. Allow it to cool slightly.

Mixing Ingredients

3

Combine Dry Ingredients

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the cocoa powder, granulated sugar, salt, and baking powder until well combined.

4

Add Wet Ingredients

In another bowl, whisk the eggs and vanilla extract until combined. Slowly mix in the melted chocolate and butter mixture.

5

Combine Mixtures

Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix.

Baking

6

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 a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

7

Cool the Cake

Remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then, transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.

Serving

8

Serve

Once cooled, slice the cake and serve it plain, or with whipped cream and berries on top for an extra treat.
