Method

  1. Heat the oven to 180C/fan 160C/gas 4. Line a square cake tin or brownie tin with parchment and butter it. Melt the chocolate with the butter in a microwave or in a bowl set over simmering water.
  2. Whisk the egg yolks and 100g sugar until light and fluffy. Stir in the cocoa powder and flour then fold in the chocolate mixture. Beat the egg whites until stiff, then beat in the rest of the sugar. Fold the egg whites into the chocolate (if the mixture is stiff, do this a little at a time until it loosens). Bake for 40 minutes or until a skewer comes out clean. Cool then cut into squares and arrange the raspberries on top. Dust with icing sugar.

    That's a really great dessert, rich chocolate&butter taste. the quality of the chocolate as main ingredient is very important. goes well with sour cherries, in case you don't like it too sweet.

    This goes down as a lovely desert with rum and raisin ice cream. I will definitely make it again!

    A little disappointed with this one. To me it tasted not so much like a torte, rather than a drier brownie recipe. I wouldn't make it as a dessert recipe again. Maybe it might be better including sour cream in the recipe?
