1
Prepare the Pan
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F). Grease an 8-inch round cake pan and line the bottom with parchment paper. Dust with cocoa powder.
2
Melt Chocolate and Butter
In a heatproof bowl, combine the dark chocolate and unsalted butter. Melt them together over a pot of simmering water, stirring until smooth. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
3
Mix Sugar and Eggs
In a mixing bowl, whisk the granulated sugar and eggs together until well combined and slightly frothy.
4
Combine Mixtures
Pour the melted chocolate and butter mixture into the egg and sugar mixture. Add the vanilla extract and a pinch of salt. Stir until fully incorporated.
5
Bake the Cake
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the edges are set but the center is still slightly soft. A toothpick inserted should come out with a few moist crumbs.
6
Cool and Serve
Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then invert onto a serving plate. Dust with cocoa powder before serving.
