    1

    Preheat your oven to 180 degrees Celsius (350 degrees Fahrenheit).

    2

    In a medium saucepan, melt 200 grams of chocolate and 100 grams of butter over low heat, stirring continuously until smooth. This should take about 5 minutes.

    3

    Once melted, remove from heat and let the mixture cool slightly.

    4

    In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 150 grams of sugar and 2 eggs until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes.

    5

    Add the cooled chocolate mixture to the egg mixture, stirring until well combined.

    6

    Sift in 100 grams of flour and add 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Gently fold the mixture until just combined, being careful not to overmix.

    7

    Pour the batter into a greased and floured baking dish and bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes.

    8

    Once baked, allow the cake to cool for about 10 minutes before cutting into squares. Serve warm, optionally with a scoop of ice cream or a dusting of powdered sugar.
