Ingredients

Dark chocolate (roughly chopped) 200 g

Unsalted butter 175 g

Caster sugar 325 g

Cake flour 130 g

Eggs 3

Powdered sugar (for decoration) to taste

Instructions

Melt chocolate and butter

Preheat the oven to 170°C (325°F) Gas 3. Place the chocolate and butter in a double boiler and melt over low heat until smooth, then remove from heat.

Add sugar and flour

Add the caster sugar and stir until fully combined. Then add the cake flour and stir until fully combined.

Add eggs

Finally add the eggs and stir until the mixture is thick and smooth.

Bake

Spoon the mixture into a 33×23×5 cm baking pan lined with baking paper, transfer to the preheated oven and bake for about 30–35 minutes until the surface is crusted but the center is still soft. Do not overbake, or the edges will become hard and crisp. Remove from the oven, let cool completely, then dust with powdered sugar to decorate.
