Description

This is a very rich cake, a small piece goes a long way. The best way to describe it is that it's a cross between a moist brownie and fudge. Be sure to use good quality chocolate. Serve with a dollop of whipped cream.

Ingredients

16 (1 ounce) squares bittersweet chocolate
10 tablespoons butter
4 eggs
1 tablespoon white sugar
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour

Directions

1 Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease and flour an 8 inch round pan.
2 In the top of a double boiler, melt the chocolate and butter. Stir until smooth and remove from heat.
3 In a separate bowl over boiling water, whisk the eggs and sugar until light and lemon colored. Remove from heat and fold in the flour. Mix 1/4 of the egg mixture into the chocolate. Pour remaining egg mixture into chocolate and quickly fold until no streaks remain. Pour into prepared pan.
4 Bake at 400 degrees F (200 degrees C) for 15 minutes. The cake will be soft and appear under-baked. Allow to cool before removing from pan.
