About the recipe
Say good-bye to those cheap box mixes and dive into this super simple French chocolate cake recipe that you can call your very own. This warm, gooey, and moist cake deserves to be complicated but it’s easy peasy! Bon Appetit!
Ingredients
- 1 ¼ cup (200 g) of chocolate
- ½ cup or 8 tablespoons (110 g) of butter, plus more for the baking dish
- ½ + cups (120 g) sugar
- 4 eggs
- ½ tsp of vanilla extract
- ¼ + cups (40 g) flour (or you favorite gluten-free flour) plus more for the pan
- ¼ + cups (40 g) almond flour (if you don’t have this substitute it with regular flour)
Preparation
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).
- Butter a round baking pan of about 8 inches in diameter.
- Flour this baking pan as well by sprinkling it with a light layer of flour on top of the butter.
- Break the chocolate down into smaller pieces and melt it together with the butter in a double broiler until they are completely smooth.. Set this aside for later when finished.
- In a mixing bowl, with a whisk, beat the eggs and the sugar together.
6. Mix in the wheat and almond flour to the mixture.
7. Add the warm chocolate/butter mixture to the mixing bowl and mix well.
8. Pour the mixture into the baking pan.
9. Cooking time: If you would like the cake very moist and a little gooey on the inside then cook it for 15-20 minutes. If you desire a normal cake consistency then 25-30 minutes. I recommend reducing the cooking time to experience a real delish!
10. Serve warm or cold, even with a side of vanilla ice cream, and enjoy!
