All the men in my family are chocolate obsessed. They must have a genetic predisposition to it. This extremely moist cake is for them, and for all chocolate lovers.  

Note: It will still be very moist so that a knife inserted will not come out clean.

 

Preparation

  1. 1
    Preheat the oven to 325 degrees.
  2. 2
    In a medium sized saucepan over low heat, melt the sugar and butter until completely melted and smooth.
  3. 3
    Add the chocolate and melt until completely incorporated and smooth once more.
  4. 4
    Remove from the heat, let the mixture cool down for 5 minutes and stir in the beaten eggs.
  5. 5
    Pour the cake mixture into a parchment lined cake tin. Place the cake in the center of the oven. Bake for 25-30 minutes.
  6. 6
    Remove the cake from the oven and invert it onto a cake plate. Remove the cake tin and parchment paper. Let cool for 20 minutes before dusting with cocoa powder. Serve with crème fraiche or vanilla ice cream, or both.
