How To Make Flourless Chocolate Cake


Step #1.Grease a 9-inch springform pan and add a round layer of parchment paper to the bottom. Preheat the oven to 375°F. In a microwave-safe bowl, microwave chocolate chips and butter in intervals, stirring until melted. Allow to cool for a few minutes.
Step #2.Stir in sugar and cocoa, then add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Add vanilla and stir until the batter is smooth and shiny.


Step #3.Add vanilla and stir until the batter is smooth and shiny. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and place it on a baking dish.
Step #4.Bake for 18-20 minutes until a crust forms on top. Let the cake sit for 20-30 minutes before removing the edge of the springform pan and serving.
Recipe FAQs
What if I don’t have a springform pan?
No worries! Just make it in a 9-inch cake pan. It won’t look quite as fancy but it’ll still taste great.
How can I tell if my cake is done?
Insert a toothpick into the center of the cake. If it comes out clean with nothing sticking, the cake is done. The edges should also just be starting to pull away from the pan.

Expert Tips
- This dish isgreat served hot or cold. I love it alllllll the ways. You can serve it 30 minutes after it comes out of the oven, or a whole day after you make it. Just wrap up the pan well and keep it in the fridge. This is one of my favorite make-ahead desserts for a party. So fancy but so easy.
- Serving it with whipped cream or ice cream is a must, as it is very rich. You can also serve it with fresh berries, a chocolate or mint-chocolate ganache drizzled over it, a dusting of powdered sugar, or even a raspberry sauce.
- You can use semi-sweet or milk chocolate chips; it all depends on how dark and rich you like your chocolate desserts.Use a good quality chocolate chip though – you can taste the difference.
