Ingredients
Ingredients
- 200 g unsalted butter
- 220 g 70% Dark Belgian Chocolate Share Bag (2 bags), chopped
- 4 large free-range eggs
- 200 g golden caster sugar
- 50 g plain flour
- 50 g ground almonds
- ¼ tsp salt
- cocoa powder (for dusting)
Instructions
1
Preheat the oven to 180ºC/Gas Mark 4. Butter and line the base and sides of a 23cm (9in) springform or loose-bottomed cake tin.
2
Put the butter and chocolate into a pan and gently melt together until smooth.
3
Meanwhile, using an electric whisk, beat the eggs and sugar together for 5 minutes until billowy and about the thickness of old-fashioned custard.
4
Pour the chocolate and butter mix into the whisked egg and sugar, then fold it in very carefully using a large metal spoon. Mix the flour, almonds and salt together, then fold into the mix until even. Spoon into the tin and bake for 35-40 minutes until evenly set with a slight crust all over the top.
5
Leave the cake to cool, then release from the tin. Dust with cocoa, then cut into wedges.
