FLOURLESS CHOCOLATE CAKE

INGREDIENTS

CAKE

• 1 cup semisweet or bittersweet chocolate chips
• 1/2 cup (8 tablespoons) unsalted butter
• 3/4 cup granulated sugar
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1 to 2 teaspoons espresso powder, optional
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, optional
• 3 large eggs
• 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder, Dutch-process cocoa preferred

GLAZE

• 1 cup semisweet or bittersweet chocolate chips
• 1/2 cup heavy cream

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Preheat the oven to 375°F. Lightly grease a metal 8" round cake pan; cut a piece of parchment to fit, grease it, and lay it in the bottom of the pan. See "tips," below.
2. To make the cake: Put the chocolate and butter in a microwave-safe bowl, and heat until the butter is melted and the chips are soft. Stir until the chips melt, reheating briefly if necessary. You can also do this over a burner set at very low heat. Transfer the melted chocolate/butter to a mixing bowl.
3. Stir in the sugar, salt, espresso powder, and vanilla. Espresso enhances chocolate's flavor much as vanilla does; using 1 teaspoon will simply enhance the flavor, while 2 teaspoons will lend a hint of mocha to the cake.
