Follow The Directions

01

Step

Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). (5 minutes)

02

Step

Melt chocolate and butter together in a heatproof bowl set over a simmering pot of water (double boiler), stirring occasionally until smooth. Remove from heat and let cool slightly. (10 minutes)

03

Step

In a large bowl, whisk together egg yolks and half of the sugar until pale and slightly thickened. (5 minutes)

04

Step

Gradually whisk the cooled chocolate mixture into the egg yolk mixture until just combined. Be careful not to overmix. (3 minutes)

05

Step

In a separate clean and dry bowl, beat egg whites with a pinch of salt using an electric mixer until soft peaks form. Gradually add the remaining sugar, beating until stiff, glossy peaks form. (7 minutes)

06

Step

Gently fold one-third of the beaten egg whites into the chocolate mixture to lighten it. Then, gently fold in the remaining egg whites until just combined. Be careful not to deflate the egg whites. (5 minutes)

07

Step

Pour 3/4 of the batter into a 9-inch springform pan or square pan. (2 minutes)

08

Step

Bake in the preheated oven until the edges are set and the center is slightly soft. (25 minutes)

09

Step

Set the pan on a wire rack and let the cake cool completely in the pan. (30 minutes)

10

Step

Spread remaining batter over cake. Refrigerate until completely chilled, at least 30 minutes more. (30 minutes)

For an even richer flavor, use high-quality dark chocolate with a cocoa content of 70% or higher.
Be careful not to overbake the cake, as it will become dry.
A springform pan is recommended for easy removal of the cake, but a regular cake pan can also be used.
Dusting the cake with cocoa powder or topping it with fresh berries adds a beautiful finishing touch.
