Ingredients
- Cake
- 1/2 cup butter
- 1 cup semi sweet or bittersweet chocolate chips (or half of each)
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 1/8 tsp salt
- 1 tsp vanilla
- 3 large eggs
- 1/2 cup cocoa powder
- Glaze
- 3 Tbsp butter
- 2/3 cup high-quality semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
- Line a round 8″ cake pan with parchment paper and spray with non-stick spray. Set aside. Preheat oven to 375°.
- Melt the butter in a small saucepan. Add the chocolate and stirring slowly, melt it over low heat.
- Mix sugar, salt, vanilla, add eggs and beat well until foamy. Then pour in the cooled chocolate, add the cocoa powder and mix until smooth.
- Pour the mixture into a mold and bake for 25 minutes or until the toothpick comes out dry from the cake.
- Let the cake cool slightly and remove it from the mold.
- For the glaze, mix butter and chocolate in a saucepan and melt in a water bath, stirring constantly. Cover the cake with icing and leave it in the refrigerator for several hours.
- Garnish with berries and icing sugar.
Notes
Add one teaspoon of baking soda to the egg-sugar mixture. Your cake will have a slightly porous texture.
