Oozy Flourless Chocolate Truffle Cake
I am a cake snob. So when it is my birthday, I usually get Bree onto the job or I have to make my own. And there are sometimes leftovers, which then become breakfast! No day can be bad when starting it off with a piece of this cake. Seriously decadent, just like a giant truffle, (check the quantities of chocolate and you will see why!) and really easy. Use the best chocolate available, and the best butter you can get as well. (It does make a difference!) Now when the cake is finished cooking, you will often have a little pool of melted butter in and around the tin/cake etc. SO fear not, when the cake cools, it will re-absorb all of this buttery goodness and you will not miss out on a single delicious calorie.
Anyway, happy whatever day you end up making this for. Hope it is everything you dreamed of and of course a bit chocolatey!
