Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups of dark chocolate (chopped or chips)
- 1/2 cup of heavy cream
- 3 large eggs
- 1/2 cup of granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup of all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup of unsalted butter (melted)
- 1 pre-made pie crust (or homemade if preferred)
- Fresh raspberries (for garnish, optional)

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a medium saucepan, melt the chocolate and heavy cream together over low heat, stirring frequently.
- Once melted, remove from heat and set aside to cool slightly.
- In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs, sugar, vanilla extract, and salt.
- Slowly add the melted chocolate mixture into the egg mixture, whisking constantly.
- Stir in the flour until fully incorporated.
- Pour the batter into the pie crust and smooth the top.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the cake is set but slightly jiggly in the center.
- Let the cake cool at room temperature for 2 hours before refrigerating for at least 3 hours.
- Garnish with fresh raspberries and a dusting of cocoa powder before serving.
Notes
- You can make this cake a day in advance for the best flavor and texture.
- Use high-quality dark chocolate for a richer, smoother flavor.
- If you prefer a crustless version, you can bake the filling directly in a greased pie dish.
