Ingredients

• 300 grams Dark chocolate (70% cocoa)
• 200 grams Unsalted butter
• 200 grams Granulated sugar
• 5 pieces Large eggs
• 50 grams All-purpose flour
• 10 grams Cocoa powder (unsweetened, for dusting)
• 200 grams Whipped cream (for serving, optional)
• 100 grams Berry compote (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Grease a 20cm (8-inch) springform pan and line the base with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a heatproof bowl, melt the dark chocolate and butter together over a double boiler or in the microwave, stirring every 30 seconds until smooth. Set aside to cool slightly.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, combine the granulated sugar and eggs. Whisk briskly by hand or with an electric mixer for about 5 minutes, until the mixture becomes pale, thick, and fluffy.

Step 4

Gently fold the melted chocolate and butter mixture into the whisked eggs and sugar. Use a rubber spatula to combine, being careful not to deflate the airy texture.

Step 5

Sift the all-purpose flour into the mixture and fold gently until just incorporated. Avoid overmixing.

Step 6

Pour the batter into the prepared springform pan and smooth the top with a spatula.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the edges are set but the center still has a slight jiggle. Avoid overbaking to ensure a fudgy texture.

Step 8

Remove the torte from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then, transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely. The torte will sink slightly in the center as it cools—this is normal.

Step 9

Once cooled, dust the top of the torte with cocoa powder. Slice and serve with whipped cream or berry compote, if desired.
