Ingredients:
| Quantity | Ingredient |
|---|---|
| 1 | Butter |
| 1 | Sugar |
| 2 | Sugar |
| 1 | Eggs |
| 2 | Chocolates |
| 12 | Chocolate chips |
| 4 | Coffee |
| 8 | Unsweetened cocoa |
Instructions:
-
Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C) and greasing a 10-inch springform pan.
-
Dust the greased pan with unsweetened cocoa, ensuring it is evenly coated.
-
In a saucepan over low heat, melt the butter, sugar, and coffee together, whisking continuously until well combined.
-
Add both types of chocolates to the mixture and continue to whisk until fully melted and smooth.
-
Remove the mixture from heat and gradually add the slightly beaten eggs, whisking vigorously to incorporate.
-
Once the batter is thoroughly mixed, pour it into the prepared springform pan, spreading it evenly.
-
Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 50 minutes, or until the cake is set and slightly puffy.
-
After baking, the cake will collapse into a dense form in the pan—this is normal and expected.
-
Allow the cake to cool completely, then transfer it to the refrigerator to chill overnight. This helps enhance the flavor and texture.
-
When ready to serve, carefully cut the chilled cake into slices using a sharp, wet knife. This ensures clean cuts and prevents sticking.
-
Serve your Chocolate Decadence cake with a delightful raspberry sauce for a burst of fruity flavor that complements the richness of the chocolate perfectly.
-
Enjoy the luxurious indulgence of this decadent chocolate masterpiece with friends and loved ones, savoring each delightful bite!
