Flourless Chocolate Cake

Flourless Chocolate Cake

grocery Prep: 15min
timer Cook: 40min
restaurant 10-12 servings

Ingredients

8 eggs
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, plus more for pan
1 bag (16 oz) semisweet chocolate chips
¼ teaspoon fine sea salt
1 teaspoon espresso powder (or instant coffee)

Directions

  • Preheat oven to 350°.
  • Grease 8” springform pan with butter and line bottom with parchment paper.
  • Using an electric mixer on high speed, beat eggs in a large bowl until they have doubled in size. Approximately 5 minutes.
  • Place chocolate chips, salt, and butter in a large microwavable bowl. Microwave the mixture at 50 percent power until the mixture is melted, stirring occasionally for about 3-4 minutes. Add espresso powder to the melted chocolate and butter, mix well.
  • Using a spatula, gently fold one-third of the whipped eggs in the chocolate mixture until incorporated. Fold egg and chocolate mixture back into remain whipped eggs until incorporated.
  • Transfer to pan, cover bottom and side of pan with foil. Gently tap the pan on the counter to release any air bubbles. Set springform pan inside a large roasting pan; add 1 inch of hot water.
  • Bake about 30-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean and sides of cake begin to pull away from pan. Let cool before serving.

Notes

Add 1 tablespoon of raspberry liqueur when adding the espresso powder. Serve cake with fresh red raspberries.
