Raw cacao powder, more nutrient dense than common cocoa powder, makes this gluten-free chocolate cake a somewhat healthy dessert option.

Yield Serves 10-12

Number Of Ingredients 5

200g (about 14 tablespoons) unsalted butter, chopped
3/4 cup (75g) raw cacao powder, plus extra for dusting
6 eggs
1 1/4 cups (220g) brown sugar
1 cup (120g) almond meal (ground almonds)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 160°C (320°F). Lightly grease a 22cm springform cake tin and line with non-stick baking paper. Place the butter and cacao in a saucepan over low heat and stir until smooth. Place the eggs and sugar in the bowl of an electric mixer and beat until doubled in volume. Add the cacao mixture and almond meal and gently fold to combine. Pour into the tin and bake for 35-40 minutes or until just set. Allow to cool in the tin. Turn out and dust with extra cacao to serve.

Overall, this was a good recipe. The cake was moist and chocolatey, and the frosting was rich and creamy. I would definitely make this cake again.

The cake was a bit too complicated to make. I think I'll try a simpler recipe next time.

The cake was a bit bland. I think I should have added more cocoa powder or chocolate chips.

The cake was a bit dense. I think I should have beaten the egg whites until they were stiffer.

The cake was too sweet for my taste. I think I'll reduce the amount of sugar next time.

This cake was a bit too dry for my taste. I think I should have added more butter or oil to the batter.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my cake didn't turn out as fudgy as I expected. It was still good, but it was more like a regular chocolate cake.
