Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F). Grease and line a 9-inch round cake pan with parchment paper.
-
In a heatproof bowl, melt the dark chocolate and butter together over a pan of simmering water. Stir until smooth and remove from heat.
-
In a separate bowl, whisk together the sugar and eggs until pale and fluffy. Gradually add the melted chocolate mixture, whisking constantly.
-
Sift in the flour, cocoa powder, and salt. Fold gently until just combined.
-
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top. Bake for 35-40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
-
Remove from the oven and let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
-
Serve the chocolate amaretti cake dusted with cocoa powder and garnish with crushed amaretti cookies, if desired.
