Ingredients
- 115 grams unsalted butter
- 200 grams granulated sugar
- 3 pieces large eggs
- 1.5 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 190 grams all-purpose flour
- 1.5 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 120 milliliters full-fat milk
- 200 grams chocolate syrup
- 1 tablespoon unsweetened cocoa powder (optional, for dusting)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F). Grease a 9x9-inch (22x22 cm) square baking pan and line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter and granulated sugar using a hand or stand mixer until light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes.
Step 3
Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Mix in the vanilla extract until fully combined.
Step 4
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Set this aside.
Step 5
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, alternating with the milk. Begin and end with the dry ingredients, mixing gently to avoid overmixing.
Step 6
Once the batter is smooth, fold in the chocolate syrup with a spatula until evenly distributed.
Step 7
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, smoothing the top with a spatula for even baking.
Step 8
Bake in the preheated oven for 35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Step 9
Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 10
Before serving, dust the top with unsweetened cocoa powder (optional) for a decorative and flavorful touch. Slice into squares and enjoy!
