Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 200°C (th.7). Melt the chopped chocolate with the softened butter in a saucepan over a double boiler. Once the chocolate is melted, set aside.
2. Crack the eggs and separate the whites from the yolks. In a bowl, beat the egg yolks with the brown sugar until the mixture becomes pale. Then, add the flour, cornstarch, and baking powder. Mix everything well to avoid lumps. Use a whisk to beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form with a pinch of salt. Gently fold them into the mixture. Then add the melted chocolate and mix again until you obtain a homogeneous cake batter.
3. Pour the cake batter into a greased mold and place it in the oven. Bake the chocolate cake for 35 minutes at 180°C (th.6) until it is well risen. Check the doneness with the tip of a knife. It should come out clean and dry at the end of the cooking time. Remove the cake from the oven and unmold it onto a serving plate. Serve warm.
