Flourless Chocolate Cake

• 125 gr. butter
• ¾ cup granulated sugar – 125 g.

1 + ¾ cups almond flour – 125 g.

Powdered sugar

Bring water to a boil in a saucepan. Place a heat-resistant mixing bowl over the saucepan. Add the chocolate to the bowl and melt it. Once the chocolate has melted, remove from the heat and add the butter, stirring with a spatula. Add the powdered sugar and mix with a whisk. Add the almond flour and continue mixing.

Add the egg yolks and whisk. Then, in a separate mixing bowl, whisk the egg whites with a pinch of powdered sugar until they reach a frothy consistency. Add this mixture to the chocolate mixture and gently fold in using a spatula.

Line the bottom and sides of a 20 cm springform cake pan with parchment paper. Pour the prepared cake batter over the parchment paper and bake in a preheated oven at 160 degrees Celsius for 40 minutes. After baking, remove from the oven and let cool. Once cooled, remove the cake from the pan and sprinkle with powdered sugar. Slice and serve.
