Equipment

Ingredients
  

  • ¾ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 8 tablespoons unsalted butter melted
  • teaspoon kosher salt
  • 2 egg whites
  • 2 whole eggs
  • cup cocoa powder
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Grease and line the bottom of a 9-inch cake pan with parchment paper.
  • Separate two of the eggs. You'll be using the egg whites so you can either discard the egg yolks or save them for something else.
  • Fit an electric mixer with the whisk attachment and whisk the two egg whites until the mixture is white and frothy. Pour in the granulated sugar and whisk until stiff peaks form.
  • In a separate medium-sized bowl melt the butter in the microwave.
  • Once the butter is melted, pour the semi-sweet chocolate chips in and whisk until the mixture is smooth.
  • Crack two whole eggs into the chocolate mixture and whisk quickly until combined. Add in the salt and cocoa powder. Make sure the mixture is completely smooth.
  • Take a spoonful of the fluffy egg whites and fold it into the chocolate mixture. Add the rest of the egg whites and gently fold the two mixtures together.
  • Pour the cake batter into the cake pan. Bake in the oven for 30 minutes. Be careful not to overbake the cake. The center of the cake should be cooked through but still soft.
  • Cook the cake on a cooling rack. Once cooled, sprinkle the top with the remaining cocoa powder.
  • Enjoy!

Notes

Use a warm knife to cut the cake. The cuts will be a lot cleaner than using a cool knife.
