recipe

  • Step 1
    Preheat the oven to 350°F. Melt 2/3 of the chocolate in the microwave. (Or you could also use a double-boiler over the stove top!) Roughly chop the rest of the chocolate.
  • Step 2
    In 2 bowls, separate the egg yolks from the whites.
  • Step 3
    Add 1/2 of the powdered sugar to the bowl of egg yolks. Whisk to combine. Mix in the melted chocolate, olive oil & a pinch of salt. Add most of the almond flour & the chopped chocolate. Stir it all together.
  • Step 4
    Add a pinch of salt to the bowl of egg whites. Using a hand mixer, beat the egg whites until they form stiff peaks. Add the rest of the powdered sugar. Beat again.
  • Step 5
    Gently fold the sugar-egg whites into the chocolate batter.
  • Step 6
    Grease a cake pan. Evenly coat the pan with the remaining almond flour. Pour in the batter. Bake for 30 min at 350°F.
  • Step 7
    Let the cake cool at room temperature. Then refrigerate for 2 hours before serving. Slice & enjoy!
