~*Chocolate Cake For The Lover In You*~

Image hosted by Photobucket.comIf you love chocolate then try this with a liqueur coffee, port - and someone special or just on your own.

Ingredients

  • 275 grams Energy Chocolate, roughly chopped
  • 250 grams unsalted butter
  • 6 eggs, at room temperature
  • 2 cups brown sugar
  • 1 cup flour

Method
  1. Melt the chocolate and butter in the top pan of a double boiler over simmering water. Remove from the heat and allow to cool.
  2. In a clean bowl beat the eggs and sugar together until they are light and fluffy. Fold the cooled chocolate and sifted flour into the egg mixture.
  3. Pour into a well-greased, floured and lined 23cm square cake tin. Bake at 180 degrees Celcius for 35 - 40 minutes. The cake should still be moist in the middle. Allow to cool completely on a cake rack before turning out.
  4. Cut into small squares to serve and dust with icing sugar. Makes a large number as it is rich and delicious.

Tip: Line the cake tin with baking paper that comes up the sides so that you can pull on the baking paper to remove the cake from the tin.

Cake sounds fantastic and it would be even better if someone would make it for us. :)
