Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350F. Brush 8: or 9" springform or tart pan with a little melted butter and dush with the extra ground almonds, shaking off excess.

Melt chocolate, sugar, butter and salt in top of double boiler over barely simmering water, then remove from heat.

Beat eggs with ground almonds and fold into chocolate mixture; allow to thicken for a few minutes. Pour into pan and bake for 35 to 45 minutes.

Remove sides of pan and leave cake on bottom part to cool. Dust with confection's sugar.

Note: Cake will not rise much. It should be rich and thin. If chilled overnight it will be dense, fudgy and insanely delicious!
