Serves 10-12
Ingredients
- 150g butter
- 350g dark chocolate 70% cocoa solids
- 5 large eggs
- 275g caster sugar
- 175g ground almonds
Method
- Preheat the oven to 175°C/155°C fan/gas mark 4. Grease a 23cm loose bottomed cake tin and line the base with baking paper.
- Melt the butter in a saucepan, break up the chocolate into chunks then add to the butter and heat gently until melted.
- Remove from the heat and allow to cool a little. Beat in the eggs and then the sugar. Stir in the ground almonds.
