Ingredients:
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup brewed coffee
- 8 eggs
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips
Instructions:
- In a large saucepan, combine sugar, chocolate chips, brewed coffee, and unsalted butter.
- Heat the mixture over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the ingredients are melted and fully dissolved, creating a smooth chocolatey concoction.
- Once melted, remove the saucepan from the stove and transfer the mixture into a large mixer bowl.
- In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs until they are well beaten.
- Gradually, in a slow and steady stream, pour the beaten eggs into the warm chocolate mixture, ensuring to whisk continuously to prevent scrambling.
- Beat the mixture on low speed until the eggs are just blended in, creating a velvety batter.
- Prepare a 9-inch springform pan by lining it with foil and greasing it with butter.
- Pour the prepared batter into the buttered and lined springform pan, ensuring it spreads evenly.
- Bake the cake in a preheated oven at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for approximately 1 hour, or until it’s almost set. It’s important not to overbake to maintain the fudgy texture.
- Once baked, remove the cake from the oven and transfer it to a cooling rack to cool completely.
- After cooling, place the cake in the refrigerator to chill thoroughly. This step helps to enhance the flavors and texture of the cake.
- The next day, when ready to serve, slice the chilled cake into portions and garnish each slice with a dollop of whipped cream for an extra touch of indulgence.
