The best.. and I say ABSOLUTE BEST Flourless chocolate cake ever :)

In December I made it for the first time and I tell you, it's been a succes ever since.
It is easy to make, looks like a party and is a perfect end of a great dinner. As it has no flour in it, it is also perfect for people who can't eat flour etc.

Here's the recipe

You need:

300g broken chocolate (I prefer dark chocolate!)
225 caster sugar
180ml boiling water
225 salted butter, cut into cubes
Some butter for greasing
6 organic eggs, separated
1 tbsp vanilla extract (you may also use vanilla sugar)

For the topping:
200 ml of mascarpone
All sorts of berries, pick the ones you love!

1. Great and line the base of a solid bottomed 23cm round cake tin (springform)
2. Preheat the oven to 180 degrees
3. Pulse the chocolate and sugar in a food processor until fine. After that add the boiling water, butter, egg yolks and vanilla.
4. Whisk the egg whites until still and slowly fold them into the chocolate mixture
5. Pour the mixture into the springform and bake for about 45/50 minutes. The top will be cracked !
6. Take out the cake, it will collapes into itself. Don't worry, it is supposed to. ;-)
7. Let the cake cool and put it in the fridge for a few hours
8. When you serve it, top it with the mascarpone and your favorite berries.
9. ENJOY!!
