2 Ingredient Fudge Cake

Prep Time 15 minutes
Cook Time 30 minutes
Total Time 45 minutes
Servings: 6 servings

Ingredients
  

  • 200 g about 7 oz dark chocolate (around 60–70% cocoa)
  • 4 large eggs room temperature

Method
 

  1. Melt the chocolate: Break the chocolate into small pieces and melt using a double boiler or microwave in short bursts, stirring until smooth.
  2. Separate the eggs: Crack the eggs and separate yolks from whites into two bowls. Keep whites clean of any yolk.
  3. Mix yolks with chocolate: Add egg yolks to the melted chocolate and stir until fully combined and glossy.
  4. Whip the egg whites: Using a mixer, beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form.
  5. Fold everything together: Gently fold the whipped egg whites into the chocolate mixture in batches, being careful not to deflate the batter.
  6. Bake the cake: Pour batter into a lined or greased baking pan, smooth the top, and bake at 170°C (340°F) for about 25–30 minutes. The center should still feel slightly soft when removed.
