Torte Ingredients
Method
Preparation
Melt Chocolate and Butter
In a heatproof bowl, combine the 54% dark chocolate and unsalted butter. Melt them together over a pot of simmering water, stirring until smooth. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
Mix Sugar and Eggs
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar and eggs until the mixture is light and fluffy.
Add Dry Ingredients
Sift the all-purpose flour, cocoa nibs, and a pinch of salt into the chocolate mixture. Fold gently until just combined.
Prepare for Baking
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Grease a round cake pan and line the bottom with parchment paper.
Bake the Torte
Pour the torte batter into the prepared cake pan. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
Cool and Serve
Allow the torte to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack. Once cooled, garnish with fresh mint leaves before serving.
