Ingredients
Scale
- 8 oz dark chocolate (at least 70% cocoa)
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter (room temperature)
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 3 large eggs (room temperature)
- 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease an 8-inch round cake pan with nonstick spray or butter, and line the bottom with parchment paper.
- In a heatproof bowl over simmering water, melt the dark chocolate and unsalted butter together until smooth and glossy. Stir occasionally.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together granulated sugar and eggs until light and frothy.
- Pour the melted chocolate mixture into the egg mixture while whisking continuously. Add cocoa powder and vanilla extract, stirring until fully combined.
- Pour the batter into your prepared cake pan and bake for about 25 minutes. The edges should be set while the center remains slightly gooey.
- Let the cake cool in the pan for about ten minutes before transferring it onto a wire rack. Serve warm or cooled with whipped cream or fresh berries.
