I can't say enough about this recipe, but I made a couple of changes to make it even easier. I've tried many flourless chocolate cake recipes, and this is IT. I melted Nestle chocolate chips (semi sweet) instead of the squares in the microwave, in small time increments (20 seconds). I then buttered, and dusted with cocoa my muffin pan. I was able to get 9 inidvidual cakes. I baked for about 20 minutes until the tops puffed slightly. I cooled completely, and they turned out nicely. Put them in the fridge, and then right before dessert, a few days later, nuked them for about 15 seconds and topped with ice cream and chocolate shell. Right out of a restaurant, and EASY. Our friends loved them just as much as we did.

This was great! It reminds me of a fudge cake, and my husband thinks it's like a brownie cake. I topped it with chocolate ganache. Next time I'll try it with all chocolate bars as a reviewer suggested, but I like the original recipe a lot.

This is one of the easiest recipes I have tried but a lot of the reviews are right that it may take 10 or so more minutes in your own oven. The centres of flourless cakes in all the other recipes I looked at said that the centres were meant to be slightly gooey looking. I just took it out when a toothpick came out clean. I let it cool in my pan for 20 minutes and then completely on a wire rack. I use silicone cake pans and they do not need to be dusted or greased. I didn't grease or dust and the cake came out completely fine. It has an extreme chocolate taste almost like eating a 70% Dark Chocolate bar. If you prefer sweeter chocolate I don't recommend this cake or any like it as most are meant to taste like this. I will try going full chocolate next time instead of with the cocoa. Also I would like to point out that I am in the UK and used an electric fan assisted oven and so had to bake it at 130 degrees celsius if you have the same always deduct 20 degrees from the celsius temperature given if it does not list a fan assisted temperature as well. I hope this helps.

Made this for Passover and it was fabulous! The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is that I had trouble removing it from the pan. I had a lot going on in the kitchen the day I made it and may not have waited a full 10 minutes to remove it from the pan, so that would be my fault. Despite that, we were able to mush it back together and it was delicious. Each time I had it, I paired a sliver of this with a sliver of cheesecake for an awesome combination.

I've made this 2 different times and both times have required a longer cooking time than 30 minutes, closer to 40-50 min for me. I used a 9 inch round pan, maybe that's the problem?? Having said that, this is delicious!! Our oldest has a newly discovered wheat allergy and he LOVES this. This will be a recipe that's used several times.

Wonderful served with fresh raspberries. I have tried other flourless cakes before and they are often dry and dense, this is rich and moist. This recipe is a keeper and good enough for company.

I made this cake for a friend, couldn't even give it to her. The cake wouldn't come out of the pan. It came out in pieces, which tasted like fudge, but such a mess! I won't try this one again.
