- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Grease and line a round cake pan (22 cm diameter) with parchment paper.
- Melt the Chocolate and Butter: In a heatproof bowl, melt the dark chocolate and butter together over a double boiler. Stir until smooth and set aside to cool slightly.
- Mix the Eggs and Sugar: In a mixing bowl, whisk the eggs and granulated sugar until light and frothy. This should take about 3-4 minutes.
- Combine Ingredients: Gently fold the melted chocolate mixture into the egg mixture, stirring until fully combined.
- Sift in Dry Ingredients: Sift the flour, baking powder, and salt together, then fold them gently into the chocolate mixture. Be careful not to overmix to keep the cake airy.
- Bake: Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and bake for 25-30 minutes. The cake should have a soft, slightly moist center when done. A toothpick inserted should come out with a few moist crumbs, not completely clean.
- Cool and Serve: Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely. Dust with powdered sugar before serving.
Tips
- Serve with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for extra indulgence.
- For added flavor, sprinkle a hint of sea salt on top or incorporate a splash of espresso into the chocolate mixture.
