Dark Chocolate Almond Cake

Perfectly rich and seductive chocolate cake, not to mention simple and quick. You don’t even need an electric mixer for this batter and it can be combined in a single bowl.

Dark chocolate almond cake recipe

This is the perfect chocolate dessert you can serve regardless of the occasion. It is rich, smooth, decadent and moist. The cake contains quite the amount of chocolate and eggs, but has little flour. One part of flour is substituted by almonds, which perfectly complement the chocolate. Please be advised to use dark chocolate, as the entire cake basically relies on its flavor (and contains a lot of it). I recommend you serve it with a dollop of softly whipped cream and dust with cocoa powder. You can also complement it with fruit or dust with confectioners sugar. The cake needs to set in the refrigerator, but my guilty pleasure is eating it while warm, when chocolate in the center is still a bit runny.
