Ingredients




300 grams of dark chocolate
120 grams of all purpose flour
200 grams of caster sugar
130 grams of extra virgin olive oil
4 eggs
1 tsp vanilla extract

Preparation

1 Break the dark chocolate into small pieces and drop into a medium bowl. Fill a small saucepan about a quarter full with hot water, then sit the bowl on top so it rests on the rim of the pan, not touching the water. Put over a low heat until the chocolate melts adding the olive oil and stirring occasionally to mix them. Now remove the bowl from the pan. 2 Break the eggs into a large bowl and tip in the sugar and the vanilla. With an electric mixer on maximum speed, whisk the eggs and sugar until they look thick and creamy. 3 Pour the cooled chocolate mixture over the eggy mousse, then gently fold together with a rubber spatula. Hold a sieve over the bowl of eggy chocolate mixture and resift the flour, shaking the sieve from side to side, to cover the top evenly. Gently fold in this powder. 4 Pour the mixture into a non-stick pan and bake at preheated oven (160ºC/320ºF/gas 3) for 22-25 minutes.
