Equipment

  • springform pan
  • double boiler

Ingredients
  

  • 8 oz Semi-Sweet Chocolate, chopped
  • 1/2 cup Unsalted Butter, cubed
  • 3/4 cup Granulated Sugar
  • 3 Large Eggs
  • 1 tsp Pure Vanilla Extract
  • 1/4 cup Unsweetened Cocoa Powder
  • 2 tbsp Tapioca Starch
  • 1/4 tsp Salt
  • 1 cup Heavy Cream
  • Unsweetened Cocoa Powder, for dusting

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 325 F. Grease an 8-inch round springform pan and line the bottom with parchment paper. Place the chopped chocolate and butter in a heatproof bowl set over a pot of simmering water. Stir gently until completely melted and smooth. Remove from heat and let cool for 5 minutes.
  • Whisk the sugar into the chocolate mixture until dissolved. Add the eggs one at a time, whisking well after each. Stir in the vanilla extract.
  • Sift the cocoa powder and tapioca starch over the chocolate mixture, add the salt, and fold in gently until smooth and no dry pockets remain.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared pan. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes until the edges are set and the center has just a slight wobble. The torte will firm up as it cools. Let cool completely in the pan, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
  • Remove the torte from the springform pan. Whip the heavy cream to soft peaks and spread it over the top, or serve a generous dollop alongside each slice. Dust with cocoa powder just before serving.
