The 3 Ingredients
You’ll need:
8 ounces (225g) high-quality dark chocolate (60–70% cocoa)
½ cup (115g) unsalted butter
4 large eggs (room temperature)
That’s it. No sugar. No flour. No extras.
The chocolate provides sweetness. The eggs provide lift. The butter provides richness.
Choosing good chocolate is important — since it’s the main flavor, quality truly matters here.
