Flourless Chocolate Cake

This is a wonderful (and very fudgy) cake. I use Green & Blacks chocolate bars, but you can use any bar that’s at least 70% cocao. Serve warm with whipped cream and berries.

Ingredients

3 bars Green & Blacks 70% Cocao chocolate bars
12 tablespoons butter
1 cup superfine sugar (put granulated sugar in the food processor; superfine sugar melts more easily)
1 pinch salt
5 eggs
1 handful crushed almonds.

Directions

Preheat oven to 350.

Place chocolate, butter, sugar and salt in a heatproof bowl over a pot of simmering water. Stir until all are melted together, then remove and cool slightly. Beat the eggs; add crushed almonds. Fold eggs into chocolate mixture and pour into lightly greased springform pan. Bake for 35 – 45 minutes. Remove from pan and cool.

Notes

Don’t pout if you have no crushed almonds on hand. You can also use slivered almonds, pecans or walnuts.
