Flourless Chocolate Cake is the best and the most decadent chocolate cake I’ve ever tried! Every single bite of this cake is extremely rich and fudgy, and the chocolate glaze truly takes it over the top! But the best part is how simple and easy it is to make. This is for all of my fellow chocolate lovers!

Flourless Chocolate Cake Recipe

This Flourless Chocolate Cake is one of those “Oh My Goodness“ Chocolate Desserts! Well, it might sound bold, but it’s true.

Moreover, this cake will impress your guests, and nobody will know that you’ve done it in no time.

Since, this decadent chocolate cake is completely flourless, then you might ask:

What is Flourless Chocolate Cake Made Up of?

Flourless Chocolate Cake is made of chocolate custard. It’s consisted of melted chocolate, butter, eggs, sugar, vanilla and cocoa powder.

Is this Flourless Chocolate Cake Recipe Gluten Free?

Flourless Chocolate Cake is gluten free cake. This chocolate cake contains neither flour nor leavening. That’s why this cake is very popular in a gluten free diet.

Whether you are on a gluten free diet or not, this cake you need to try. It’s super RICH and FUDGY, since it’s featuring both chocolate and cocoa. And it’s really a large amount of chocolate for such a small cake. But certainly not too much! Because there is no such thing as too much chocolate!!! Real chocolate lovers understand what I’m saying.

How to Make Flourless Chocolate Cake with Chocolate Glaze:

Melt chocolate and butter and set aside to cool. Beat eggs, sugar, vanilla and salt. Add melted chocolate and butter mixture and mix to combine. Mix in cocoa powder and pour in prepared pan. Bake for 40 minutes, then cool completely. Top with chocolate glaze. It’s extremely EASY to make and the result is Best Flourless Chocolate Cake.

Description

Flourless Chocolate Cake is the best and the most decadent chocolate cake I’ve ever tried! Every single bite of this cake is extremely rich and fudgy, and the chocolate glaze truly takes it over the top! But the best part is how simple and easy it is to make. This is for all of my fellow chocolate lovers!


Ingredients

  • 12 oz. semi sweet chocolate- chopped
  • ¾ cup unsalted butter (plus more to grease the pan)
  • 5 eggs
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 ½ tsp. vanilla extract
  • dash of salt
  • ¼ cup unsweetened cocoa powder-sifted (plus more to dust the pan)

For Chocolate Glaze:

  • 3 Tbsp. unsalted butter
  • 4.5 oz. bitter sweet,semi sweet or milk chocolate-chopped (I combined  2 oz. milk chocolate and 2.5 oz. semi sweet chocolate)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 300F and place the rack in the middle position.
  2. Grease 9 x 2 inches round cake pan with butter. Line the bottom with parchment paper, butter the paper, then lightly dust bottom and sides with cocoa powder, then tap off the excess of cocoa powder and set aside.
  3. Place ¾ cup of unsalted butter cut in 1 inch pieces and 12 oz chopped chocolate in a heatproof bowl. Melt the chocolate and butter in a microwave or over a pot of simmering water. Stir until completely smooth, then set aside to cool slightly.
  4. Next, in a large mixing bowl place eggs, sugar, vanilla and salt. Beat on a medium speed until pale yellow and doubled in size.
  5. With your mixer running on low speed, gradually add melted chocolate and mix to combine. Add cocoa powder and mix just until evenly combined.
  6. Pour the batter in prepared pan and bake about 40 minutes or until toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs attached. Do not over bake the cake!!!
  7. Col the cake in the pan on a wire rack for 30 minutes, hen run a thin knife around the edges and invert the cake on a rack to cool completely.
  8. Transfer cooled cake to a serving plate and make the glaze.

Chocolate Glaze:

  1. In a heatproof bowl combine 3 Tbsp. unsalted butter and 4.5 oz. chopped chocolate. Again, you can melt the chocolate and butter in a microwave or over a pot of simmering water, stirring until completely smooth. Spread over completely cooled cake.
  2. Store in the fridge. Remove from the fridge about half an hour before serving.
  3. Serve with fresh strawberries and drizzle with strawberry syrup if desired.

This looks absolutely decadent!
I have a question, please…
I have made several flourless chocolate cakes, and they turn out good, EXCEPT for the fact that when cooling, they always sink (really sink!) in the middle. It does not look like yours here sunk at all. It looks perfect. Do you have any suggestions as to how I can keep mine from sinking in the middle?
Thank you so much.

Hi Lisa, the original recipe use 2 Tbsp water, I skip that part and my batter was thicker and did not sink much.

Can you freeze this cake?

Reply

Hi Suzan, I haven’t tried to freeze this cake, we eat it whole the first day, but I think it will freeze well.

Hi Vera -This looks delicious. As someone who is not an experienced baker, I’m glad you mentioned inverting the cake.

This recipe has honestly become one of my all-time favorite desserts. I’ve made it 6 or 7 times, and it has been a smash hit with coworkers and family members. My mom even requested it for Thanksgiving this year!
