Recipe Instructions
Step 1
Combine sugar, water, and salt in a small saucepan over medium heat. Stir until completely dissolved; set aside.
Step 2
Melt bittersweet chocolate in a microwave-safe glass or ceramic bowl in 15-second intervals, stirring after each interval, 1 to 3 minutes. Pour chocolate into the bowl of an electric mixer.
Step 3
Bake cake in the water bath in the preheated oven for 45 minutes. The center will still look wet. Place cake in the refrigerator until thoroughly chilled, 8 hours to overnight.
Step 4
To unmold, dip the bottom of the cake pan in hot water for 10 seconds and invert onto a serving plate.
Step 5
Pour batter into the prepared cake pan.
Step 6
Serve and enjoy!
Step 7
Gather all ingredients. Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C). Grease a 10-inch round cake pan; set aside.
Step 8
Cut butter into pieces; beat butter, one piece at a time, into chocolate until combined.
Step 9
Beat in hot sugar water. Slowly beat in eggs, one at a time.
Step 10
Have a pan larger than the cake pan ready; put the cake pan in the larger pan and fill the larger pan with boiling water halfway up the sides of the cake pan.
