Ingredients 

Main Ingredients

  • 1 cup unsalted butter cut into pieces
  • 8 oz bittersweet chocolate chopped
  • 1.25 cups granulated sugar
  • 6 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 0.25 teaspoon salt

Instructions 

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease an 8-inch round cake pan and line the bottom with parchment paper.
  2. Melt the butter and chocolate together in a heatproof bowl set over a pot of simmering water, stirring until smooth. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
  3. Whisk in the sugar, then add the eggs one at a time, whisking well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla and salt.
  4. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
  5. Bake for 25 minutes, or until the top is set and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
  6. Let the cake cool in the pan on a wire rack for 10 minutes, then remove from the pan and let cool completely on the rack.
