Recipe's Ingredients

  Quantities for people → Recalculate
  • 3 eggs
  • 3 teaspoons milk for chocolate coating
  • 3 teaspoons sour cream
  • 3 teaspoons milk
  • 150 g plain black chocolate
  • 60 g unsalted butter + for tin
  • 100 g sugar
  • 100 g plain flour
  • 130 g plain black chocolate for chocolate coating

  • Recipe preparation steps

  • 1
    Pre-heat oven to 400°F.
  • 2
    Separate egg whites from yolks ; melt the butter.
  • 3
    Mix the yolks with the sugar until the mixture gets clearer and frothy ; add the melted butter, then add the flour.
  • 4
    Melt the chocolate in a saucepan with the milk (very gentle flame, turn non-stop with a wooden spoon) ; when melted, add it to the batter.
  • 5
    Whisk the egg whites with one pinch of salt using and electric mixer until they get completely frothy ; gently incorporate them to the batter with a whisk.
  • 6
    Butter a tin and pour the batter in ; bake in oven for 30 minutes or so.
  • 7
    If you want to coat this cake, melt the chocolate with the milk in a saucepan when the cake is baked (very gentle flame, turn constantly). When melted, add the sour cream and coat the cake with this cream.
  • 8
    You can choose to flavor the coating with orange for instance using 1 teaspoonoon of Cointreau type liquor, it is delicious (my favorite !) or using one teaspoonoon of orange-flower water...which is very good as well.
  • Ready !
