Ingredients

• 170g dark chocolate

Instructions

1. In a skillet or medium pot, melt butter + dark chocolate until smooth. It’s important you melt in the chocolate off heat; if it’s too hot it’ll clump up.

4. Whisk in eggs + yolk, then vanilla.

5. Fold in flour, cocoa powder, and salt.

6. Fold in extra chocolate chunks or nuts, if using.
