Main Ingredients

  • 1 cup dark chocolate chips
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1/4 cup coconut oil or butter
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease an 8-inch round cake pan.
  • Melt the dark chocolate and coconut oil together in a heatproof bowl over simmering water, stirring until smooth.
  • Remove from heat and whisk in sugar, followed by the eggs one at a time.
  • Stir in cocoa powder, vanilla extract, and salt until just combined.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top.

Baking

  • Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the cake has set but the center is slightly moist.
  • Let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

Store in an airtight container for up to 5 days in the fridge or freeze for up to 3 months. Reheat in the microwave for a few seconds for that warm chocolate goodness. For extra chocolate flavor, consider adding a splash of espresso.
