Ingredients

  1. 7 tablespoonsbutter (or margarine)
  2. 1/2 cupsugar
  3. 2eggs
  4. 2/3 cupall-purpose flour (about 80 grams)
  5. 3 tablespoonscocoa powder (about 20 grams)
  6. 1/4 teaspoonbaking powder (about 1 gram)

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Bring the butter and eggs to room temperature, and beat the eggs. Grease the pan with extra butter and line it with parchment paper.

  2. 2

    In a bowl, mix the butter until creamy. Gradually add the sugar in 4-5 parts, mixing until it becomes pale each time.

  3. 3

    Once the butter is light, add the eggs in 4-5 parts, mixing well each time to prevent separation.

  4. 4

    Sift together the dry ingredients and add them to the bowl from step 3. Mix thoroughly with a rubber spatula.

  5. 5

    Pour the batter into the pan, tap it on the counter a few times to remove air bubbles. Use a spatula to create a shallow groove about 1/2 inch deep in the center.

  6. 6

    Preheat the oven to 340°F (170°C) and bake for about 35 minutes. Since ovens vary, start checking around 25 minutes and adjust as needed.

  7. 7

    Once baked, drop the pan from a height of about 6 inches to release hot air, then remove the cake from the pan and let it cool.
