Ingredients

Method

  1. Heat the oven to 180 °C. Butter and flour a 22 cm tin.
  2. Melt the chocolate and butter over a pan of simmering water, or for 1 minute in the microwave, stirring.
  3. Whisk the eggs with the sugar until pale.
  4. Stir in the melted chocolate, then the flour, without overmixing.
  5. Pour into the tin and bake for 20 to 22 minutes: the centre should still wobble.
  6. Leave to cool for 10 minutes before turning out.

💡 Tip : Use dark baking chocolate with at least 50 % cocoa.
