Ingredients

  • 0 dark chocolate
  • 0 butter

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).

  3. Remove the bowl from the heat and allow the mixture to cool slightly.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs and sugar together until pale and fluffy.
  5. Gently fold the melted chocolate mixture into the egg mixture until fully combined.
  6. Sift the flour into the mixture and gently fold it in until just combined.
  7. Pour the batter into a greased and lined cake tin.
  8. Bake in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes, or until the edges are set but the center is still slightly wobbly.

  10. For leftovers, refrigerate to allow the base to transform into a fudgy brownie and the top to set into a dark chocolate mousse.
