A rich and elegant flourless chocolate torte paired with a bright and smooth raspberry coulis, perfect for special occasions or a cozy treat.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 ounces unsweetened dark chocolate (about 225 grams)
  • ½ cup unsalted butter (115 grams), softened
  • ¾ cup granulated sugar (150 grams)
  • 4 large eggs, room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt
  • 1 ½ cups fresh or frozen raspberries (225 grams)
  • 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
  • 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons water

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease an 8-inch (20 cm) springform pan with butter and line the bottom with parchment paper.
  2. In a double boiler or heatproof bowl over simmering water, gently melt the chocolate and butter together until smooth and glossy. Remove from heat and let cool slightly (about 5 minutes).
  3. In a clean bowl, whisk the eggs and granulated sugar using an electric mixer or whisk for about 5 minutes until pale, thick, and fluffy.
  4. Slowly fold the melted chocolate mixture into the egg mixture using a spatula. Add vanilla extract and salt. Fold gently but thoroughly to keep air in the batter.
  5. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top. Bake for 25-30 minutes until edges are set but center is slightly soft and jiggly.
  6. Let the torte cool in the pan on a wire rack for 15 minutes. Run a knife around the edges and remove the springform ring. Cool completely before serving (about 1 hour at room temperature or chill in fridge).
  7. For the raspberry coulis, blend raspberries, powdered sugar, lemon juice, and water until smooth. Strain through a fine mesh sieve to remove seeds. Chill until serving.
  8. Slice the torte with a warm knife and drizzle raspberry coulis on each plate. Garnish with fresh raspberries or powdered sugar if desired.

Notes

Use room temperature eggs for better whipping. Melt chocolate gently to avoid burning. Fold batter gently to keep air in. The center should be slightly jiggly when done. For a dairy-free version, substitute butter with coconut oil and use dairy-free chocolate. Strain raspberry coulis for a smooth finish. Dip knife in hot water and wipe between cuts for clean slices.
