    French Chocolate-Fudge Cake


    Source of Recipe


    Lynne's Sunday Suppers

    List of Ingredients




    6 ounces bittersweet chocolate (I prefer Lindt Excellence, Valrhona, Callebaut, or Ghiradelli, in that order)
    2 ounces unsweetened chocolate
    1 stick (4 ounces) unsalted butter
    1/2 teaspoon almond extract
    2 teaspoons vanilla extract
    4 large eggs
    1 cup sugar
    Generous pinch salt
    1/4 cup flour
    Whipped cream (optional)

    Recipe



    1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Line the bottom of an 8-inch springform pan with a round of parchment or waxpaper.

    2. Melt chocolates and butter in a small stainless-steel bowl set in a small saucepan of simmering water. Stir in the extracts and vanilla, and cool to room temperature.

    3. With plastic spatula, beat together eggs, sugar, and salt until creamy. Stir in the flour and chocolate until smooth. Pour into the pan and bake 35 minutes or until a knife inserted in the center comes out with a few streaks.

    4. Cool on a cake rack, then release sides of the spring form and set cake on a cake plate. Serve topped with whipped cream if desired.
