Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9-inch round cake pan. Line the bottom of the pan with parchment paper and set it aside.
-
In a heatproof bowl, melt the chocolate chips and butter together. You can do this by placing the bowl over a pot of simmering water or by using the microwave in short 20-second bursts, stirring in between each interval until smooth.
-
Once the chocolate and butter are melted and well combined, stir in the sugar, salt, and vanilla extract until the sugar is dissolved.
-
Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. The batter should be smooth and glossy.
-
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
-
Bake the cake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the edges are set but the center is still slightly jiggly.
-
Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then, run a knife around the edges of the cake to loosen it before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
-
Once the cake has cooled, you can dust the top with cocoa powder for a decorative finish. You can also garnish with fresh berries for a pop of color and freshness.
-
Slice the cake and serve it at room temperature.
