Chocolate cake
Ingredients:
For the test:
200 g dark chocolate
200 g butter
200 g sugar
4 eggs
150 g flour
1 tsp. baking powder
50 g cocoa powder
1 tsp. vanilla extract
a pinch of salt
For cream:
300 g dark chocolate
200 g cream
50 g butter
2 tbsp. l. honey or brown sugar
Decor:
fresh berries or nuts
chocolate chips
Instructions:
Let’s start with the test. Preheat the oven to 180 degrees. Grease a baking dish with butter and sprinkle with flour.
Melt dark chocolate with butter in a double boiler, stirring constantly. Let cool a little.
In a separate bowl, beat eggs with sugar until fluffy. Gradually add vanilla, salt and melted chocolate. Sift flour, cocoa powder and baking powder, add to the dough, gently mixing until smooth.
Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake in the preheated oven for about 25—30 minutes until done. Test doneness by inserting a wooden skewer into the center of the cake — if it comes out clean, the cake is ready.
