Description

Ingredients

• 12 ounces dark chocolate, semisweet, milk or bittersweet can be used too (whichever you prefer)
• 2 sticks butter, cut into pieces
• 5 large eggs, room temperature
• 1¼ cups sugar

Directions

• Pre-heat the oven to 350 degrees.
• Add 1 inch of hot water to a pan with at least two inch sides that is larger than your springform pan. (I use a 10-inch springform pan.)
• Add the chocolate and butter to a microwave safe bowl.
• Microwave for 30 seconds, in three intervals (wait a minute or so before each one) but dont mix.
• Let sit for one minute, then stir the butter and chocolate until smooth.
• In a larger second bowl, mix the eggs and sugar with a whisk.
• Make sure the chocolate is not too hot or wait another minute or two.
• Whisk in the chocolate into the egg mixture slowly until fully combined.
• Sit your springform pan on top of a sheet of foil and press it up against the sides so there is a barrier between the pan and the water.
• Add the batter, cover the top with foil and put it in your pan with water.
• Bake in a water bath for 75 minutes.
• Remove from oven and from water bath.
• Uncover and let cool completely.
