Equipment

  • 9-inch springform pan (24 cm) OR
  • Square Cake Pan, 8 x 8
  • Parchment paper
  • *Optional* Rubber spatula

Ingredients

  • 7 oz (200g) dark chocolate chopped or broken into pieces
  • 2 sticks (230g) unsalted butter cut into chunks
  • 1 Teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup (200g) granulated sugar
  • 4 large eggs
  • 2 cups (240g) almond flour
  • a pinch of salt
  • cooking spray

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F/180°C.
  • Line the baking pan with parchment paper and spray with oil.
  • Melt the chocolate and butter on low heat on the stove until smooth.
  • Transfer the chocolate to a large bowl, add vanilla, and mix well. Let it cool for a few minutes.
  • Stir in sugar, eggs, and salt. It is important to work quickly so that the eggs do not harden from the heat of the chocolate.
  • Add almond flour and mix until everything is combined.
  • Spread batter into the prepared pan and flatten the mixture with a spatula. The mixture will be very thick, and that is OK.
  • Bake for 25-30 minutes. Do not overbake- a toothpick stuck in the center comes out with moist chocolate crumbs.
  • Cool completely to room temperature. Dust with powdered sugar if desired.
  • Slice and enjoy!
