From hooch 16 years agoIngredients

- 3 oz. unsweetened chocolate, chopped shopping list
- 1/4 lb. (8 Tbs.) unsalted butter, cut into pieces plus more for the pan shopping list
- 4 eggs, at room temperature shopping list
- 1/2 cup sugar shopping list
- 1/4 cup brewed espresso or double-strength coffee, cooled to room temperature shopping list

How to make it
- Heat the oven to 350 F. Butter an 8-inch cake pan and line the bottom with Pan Liners (parchment). Butter the parchment and lightly flour the pan, shaking out the excess.
- In a small, heavy-based saucepan over medium heat, melt the chocolates and butter, stirring frequently. Set aside.
- Using the whisk attachment of a stand mixer, whip the eggs, sugar, brewed espresso, ground espresso beans, and salt on medium-high speed until thick and voluminous, at least 8 min. Turn the mixer to low and mix in the butter-chocolate mixture. Turn off the mixer. Sift the flour over the batter and fold until all the ingredients are fully incorporated.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake until a skewer inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean, 25 to 30 min. Cool in the pan on a rack for 10 min. Set a plate over the torte and carefully invert the torte onto the plate; peel off the parchment. Flip the torte back onto the rack to cool completely before slicing.
