Ingredients

Servings

• 200 gram Dark Chocolate
• 150 gram Unsalted Butter
• 150 gram Granulated Sugar
• 4 unit Eggs
• 2 tablespoon Rum
• 2 tablespoon Unsweetened Cocoa Powder
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 cup Whipped Cream (for serving)
• 20 gram Chocolate Shavings (for garnish)

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch round cake pan and line the bottom with parchment paper.
2. In a heatproof bowl, melt the dark chocolate and unsalted butter together. Stir until smooth and well combined.
3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar, eggs, rum, unsweetened cocoa powder, and salt. Add the melted chocolate mixture and mix until smooth.
4. Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top with a spatula. Bake for 40-45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
5. Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then, transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
6. In a small saucepan, heat the rum over medium heat until hot but not boiling. Remove from heat and stir in the chocolate until melted and smooth.
7. Place the cooled cake on a serving plate and pour the chocolate rum glaze over the top. Allow the glaze to set for 30 minutes.
8. Serve the flourless chocolate rum cake with whipped cream and chocolate shavings on top.
