Ingredients
- 8 ounces bittersweet chocolate chopped into small pieces NOT unsweetened
- 1 cup salted butter
- 1 1/2 cups white sugar
- 6 large eggs
- 1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder sifted to ensure there are no lumps
Chocolate Glaze Ingredients:
- 6 ounces bittersweet chocolate
- 1/4 cup salted butter
Instructions
- Pre-heat your oven to 375 °F. Grease (with butter) a 10 inch spring form pan, cutting out a parchment circle for the bottom as well as a liner.
- Place chocolate and butter in the top bowl of a double boiler (or like me, a small pot inside a larger pot that has boiling water in it!) and melt together, stirring constantly, until smooth.
- Remove the pot from the heat and whisk the sugar in for 2-3 minutes. The more you whisk at this point, the less chance that your cake will be grainy from the sugar.
- Add in the eggs and beat in well, using the whisk. Whisk in the cocoa until smooth.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan. Cook in the oven for 22-25 minutes, until the middle is sightly jiggly when moved and the top of the cake has a slight crust. The less you cook it, the fudgier it will be! Make sure that the temperature in the middle reaches 165°F for raw egg safety.
- Cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then unhook the sides. Invert onto your serving stand/plate, remove the parchment paper carefully.
Chocolate Glaze
- Melt together the chocolate and the butter until smooth. Pour over the cake and let harden slightly.
Notes
- This cake makes a lot of servings as it is really rich!
