How to Make Lactose Free Flourless Chocolate Cake

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease an 8-inch round baking pan. Line the bottom with parchment paper.
  2. Chop 6 ounces (170g) of high-quality bittersweet chocolate into small pieces.
  3. In a double boiler or heat-safe bowl set over a saucepan of simmering water (make sure the bottom of the bowl doesn't touch the water), melt the chocolate with 1/4 cup (60ml) of coconut oil, stirring constantly until smooth and glossy.
  4. Remove from heat and whisk in 3/4 cup (150g) granulated sugar until fully incorporated.
  5. Whisk in 4 large eggs one at a time, ensuring each is fully incorporated before adding the next.
  6. Sift 1/2 cup (30g) unsweetened cocoa powder over the chocolate mixture and whisk gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  7. Pour batter into the prepared pan and bake in the center of the oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs.
  8. Let the cake cool in the pan on a wire rack for 10 minutes before inverting it onto a serving plate. Allow to cool completely before serving.
