250g Heist Dark Chocolate 180g unsalted butter 150g light brown soft sugar 3 large eggs + 1 yolk 80g plain flour ½ tsp sea salt 1 tsp vanilla extract Pinch of coffee (optional)
Method
Pre-heat oven to 170°C/150°C fan. Line a round 20cm tin with buttered baking paper. Melt the chocolate and butter in a pan over a low heat. Keep stirring until smooth and glossy - put to one side and allow to cool slightly. Whisk the eggs and sugar together until slightly thickened/whipped. Slowly pour the chocolate mixture into the eggs and sugar, stirring constantly. Add the vanilla, coffee, salt and fold in the flour.

Dollop on some whipped cream or vanilla ice cream to serve.
