Ingredients
  • 250 g granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 5 ml vanilla extract
  • 115 g all-purpose flour
  • 50 g cocoa powder
  • 155 g unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 pinch of salt
Instructions
    Preheat and Prepare:
  1. 1
    Preheat your oven to 175°C (fan-assisted). Line a 6-inch cake tin with baking paper or a cake liner.
    2. Melt the Butter:
  2. 2
    Melt the butter in a saucepan or microwave-safe bowl, then set aside to cool slightly.
    3. Mix the Ingredients:
  3. 3
    In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the sugar and eggs until smooth and slightly frothy.
  4. 4
    Sift in the flour and cocoa powder, then add the vanilla extract and pinch of salt.
  5. 5
    Gradually pour in the melted butter, stirring gently until all ingredients are combined. The batter will be thick and smooth.
    6. Bake:
  6. 6
    Pour the batter into the prepared cake tin and smooth the top with a spatula. Bake for approximately 20 minutes. The cake should have a slightly firm crust on top while remaining soft and gooey in the center.
    7. Cool and Serve:
  7. 7
    Allow the cake to cool in the tin for at least 15-20 minutes. Once cooled, remove from the tin, slice, and dust with powdered sugar for a delightful finishing touch.
