CHOCOLATE TORTE ( To die for )

Preheat your oven to 200 deg C. Just a warning , this cake can be really stubborn to remove from the pan . So I suggest you consider alternative cooking pans / dishes /ovenproof containers . Hence my choice of oven to the table serving dishes . Don't let that put you off preparing this dish , seriously it is fudgy and full of chocolate. Generously grease a 9" pan or a springform pan . Line the bottom of the pan with baking paper . Now lets get down to preparing the torte .... Place 5 lightly beaten eggs in a bowl and 1 tsp of vanilla extract along with 200gm of granulated sugar and beat until thoroughly combined ( 5 minutes ). Then add 1 tbs of plain flour and 1/4 tsp of salt and mix till combined. Place 226 gm of butter/ marg in a bowl along with 226 gm of good chocolate ( my choice was dark ). Heat in the microwave and heat in 30 second increments , until the butter and chocolate have melted and become smooth when stirred .Set aside and cool slightly . Add the chocolate mixture to the egg and flour mixture and mix until well combined . Now pour the batter into the prepared baking dish/ dishes . Bake 20- 25 minutes OR until a skewer inserted comes out with a few moist crumbs . Serve with cream and or ice-cream .....
