this is one my favorite chocolate cake, once you have tried baking this, you will never turn back, it is a dense chocolate cake that fills your mouth with the true taste of cocoa, if you love bitter chocolate, this is definitely your kind of cake! the best thing about this cake - no flour no fuss, it takes barely an hour from mixing to baking to having it right on your taste buds.
no flour no fuss chocolate cake:
200g bittersweet chocolate
200g unsalted butter
200g caster sugar
4 eggs
1 tbsp flour
1. melt butter and bittersweet chocolate using the bain-marie method
2. combine sugar into mixture once the chocolate and butter has completely melted
3. set aside to cool for a little while
4. mix in the eggs one by one, making sure that each egg is completely combine into the mixture before adding the next one
5. add in the flour and fold it into the mixture
6. preheat oven at 180 degree celsius
7. bake for 30 minutes, turn the oven off and leave the cake in the oven for another 10 minutes
8. remove the cake from oven and let it cool
usually you would let the cake cool completely but being impatient, i tend to
eat it while it is still warm, i love the taste of chocolate cakes when it is still warm and it is absolutely delicious with vanilla ice cream!
i made some variations to the recipe above, i used chocolate with 100% cocoa
content instead of the usual 70%, reduced the sugar to 150g and if you prefer to have a gooey texture, you can reduce the baking time.
even if you are totally an idiot at baking like how i am with road directions, this cake will never fail you =p
