Decadent Chocolate Cake on a Bed of Raspberry Sauce
Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F). Grease and flour a round cake pan.
-
Melt the chocolate and butter in a heatproof bowl over simmering water. Stir until smooth and remove from heat.
-
In a separate bowl, whisk together sugar and eggs until well combined. Add the melted chocolate mixture and mix well.
-
In another bowl, sift together flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the chocolate mixture, mixing 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 clean.
-
While the cake is baking, prepare the raspberry sauce by blending the raspberries and powdered sugar in a blender until smooth. Strain the sauce to remove any seeds.
-
Once the cake is done, let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
-
Serve the chocolate cake on a plate with a generous drizzle of raspberry sauce on top. Dust with powdered sugar and garnish with fresh raspberries, if desired.
