Equipment

  • Oven

Ingredients

  • 1+3/4 sticks Unsalted butter
  • 7 oz Semisweet or dark chocolate
  • 4 units Eggs
  • 1 cup Granulated sugar
  • 1/3 cup All purpose flour
  • 1 pinch Salt

Whipped cream with cream cheese (optional)

  • 1+1/4 cup Whipping cream
  • 1/4 cup Granulated sugar
  • 3 tablespoons Cream cheese

Instructions

  • To start we will prepare our cake pan. We can grease ir with butter and add some flour or cover it with baking powder.
  • Preheat the oven 345º Fahrenheit (180ºCelsius). 
  • Next melt the butter. You can use the microwave with brief intervals or double boil it on a pan. 
  • Melt the chocolate, using the microwave with brief intervals carefully not to burn it or double boiling it and stir it with the butter using a spatula. 
  • Keep mixing and add the eggs.
  • Add now the flour shifted, sugar and a pinch of salt. You can use a spatula to avoid bubbles on your cake batter.
  • Bake 15-20 minutes, it will depends on your oven. It's normal if the surface looks “broken”, and you can cover with foil not to burn the surface the last baking minutes.  If you can prick the middle of the cake and the pick is clean the cake will be ready. 
  • To prepare the cream cheese whipped cream, you need to whip the cream and the sugar and add the cream cheese until the cream will have the dense consistency we are looking for. You can add more sugar if you like the whipped cream sweeter. 
  • Let the cake cool and serve with whipped cream and enjoy!
