Instructions
Creating a Flourless Chocolate Cake is a straightforward process. Follow these steps to whip up this amazing dessert:
1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease an 8-inch round cake pan or line it with parchment paper for easy release.
2. Melt Chocolate and Oil: In a medium saucepan, combine the dairy-free chocolate chips and coconut oil. Melt over low heat, stirring until smooth and fully combined.
3. Mix Sugar and Cocoa: Remove from heat and stir in the granulated sugar and cocoa powder until incorporated.
4. Add Eggs and Vanilla: While the mixture is still warm, add in the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract and salt.
5. Pour into the Pan: Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan, spreading it evenly.
6. Bake: Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is set and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
7. Cool: Remove from the oven and let the cake cool in the pan for about 10-15 minutes. Then, carefully transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
8. Serve: Once completely cooled, dust the top with powdered sugar or serve with fresh berries and whipped coconut cream if desired.
