Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 oz dark chocolate (at least 70% cocoa)
  • ½ cup unsalted butter
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • ¼ cup cocoa powder

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8-inch round cake pan and line the bottom with parchment paper.
  2. Melt dark chocolate and butter together in a heatproof bowl over simmering water until smooth.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together sugar and eggs until light and fluffy.
  4. Gradually mix the melted chocolate into the egg-sugar mixture while stirring continuously.
  5. Sift in cocoa powder and vanilla extract, folding gently to combine without overmixing.
  6. Pour batter into the prepared pan and smooth out the top. Bake for about 25 minutes until edges are set but center remains soft.
  7. Cool completely in the pan before transferring to a serving plate. Dust with cocoa powder or powdered sugar if desired.

Keywords: For added depth of flavor, consider adding a pinch of espresso powder or a sprinkle of sea salt on top before baking. Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to three days; reheat slices briefly in the microwave for that fresh-out-of-the-oven gooeyness.
