Subtly impressive and made with just 3 ingredients. I’ve made it so many times, I can practically whip it up on autopilot now.

Equipment You’ll Need
8-inch round cake pan

Parchment paper

Mixing bowls

Hand mixer or stand mixer

Heatproof bowl

Saucepan (for melting)
Spatula

Simple tools for a simple masterpiece.

Step-by-Step Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Pan
Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C).

Line the bottom of an 8-inch round cake pan with parchment paper. Lightly grease the sides with butter.

For best results, wrap the outside of the pan with foil if you plan to bake it in a water bath (optional but recommended for extra silkiness).

Step 2: Melt Chocolate and Butter
Break the chocolate into small pieces and place it in a heatproof bowl.
