Ingredients
- 250 grams Unsalted butter
- 200 grams Dark chocolate (70% cocoa)
- 200 grams Brown sugar
- 100 grams Caster sugar
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 4 Large eggs
- 100 grams Gluten-free plain flour
- 50 grams Cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 100 milliliters Milk
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 160°C (320°F). Grease and line a 9-inch round cake pan with baking parchment.
Step 2
In a heatproof bowl over a saucepan of simmering water, melt the butter and dark chocolate together. Stir occasionally until fully melted and smooth.
Step 3
Remove from heat and let cool slightly. Stir in the brown sugar, caster sugar, and vanilla extract into the chocolate mixture until well combined.
Step 4
Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition until the mixture is smooth.
Step 5
Sift together the gluten-free plain flour, cocoa powder, and baking powder in a separate bowl.
Step 6
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the chocolate mixture, alternating with the milk, starting and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined and the batter is smooth.
Step 7
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the surface with a spatula.
Step 8
Bake in the preheated oven for about 60 minutes, or until a skewer inserted into the center of the cake comes out mostly clean with just a few moist crumbs.
Step 9
Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 10
Once cooled, slice and serve as desired.
