Easy and Rich Gateau Chocolat
I made an easy version of a recipe I saw in a book and it was unexpectedly delicious. It only takes 4 ingredients!
You can use your hands to break up the bar chocolate from within the foil, so you don't need a knife.
If you follow all the steps in a hot water bath, it will turn out great. When mixing, be careful not to let it bubble and it will be rich.
Bake until the inside is nice and soft and a little under-baked. Recipe by nokko_n

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Prepare the boiling water for the hot water bath.
- 2
Preheat the oven to 180℃.
- 3
Chop up the chocolate and place into a heatproof bowl. Cut the butter into 2 cm chunks and add to the bowl.
- 4
Heat the chocolate and butter in the microwave for 1:30. It's okay if it doesn't completely melt at this point. Set in the water bath and mix while slowly melting the rest of the way.
- 5
When the chocolate and butter have completely melted, mix in the sugar (while still in the water bath).
- 6
Add one of the eggs and mix. Once mixed, add in the other egg and mix. It's okay if you add the eggs without beating first. Do this in the water bath as well.
- 7
Continue mixing until glossy, mixing slowly so as not to form bubbles (still in the water bath).
- 8
Transfer to the aluminum cup and drop onto a table to release any air bubbles. Bake at 180℃ for 20 minutes.
- 9
It's done! It'll be puffed up when baked, but will dent as it cools.
- 10
If you use a 6 cm silicone cup, bake at 180℃ for 13 minutes.
- 11
The center won't be hard, but it will firm up when cooled. When eating, bring it to room temperature or eat chilled. You can also warm it in the microwave for 30 seconds to melt the center.
- 12
Once cooled, you can cleanly remove it from the pan.
- 13
Note: In the summer, you don't even need to use the water bath to melt it! Super easy!
- 14
Note: If you add some rum, brandy, or cognac at the end, it will have an adult taste! Use 1~2 tablespoons!
- 15
Note: If you change the bar chocolate to confectionery chocolate and the butter to cultured butter, it will be even more rich! It's great for presents.

Simple and Rich Gateau au Chocolat Simple and Rich Gateau au Chocolat
I got a lot of egg whites for making macarons. I had too many whites and spent many days trying to use them up. I made a gateau au chocolat that used a lot of egg whites, and managed to make a delicious cake using them.* If you add sugar to the meringue, it will become stiff, and when mixing it with melted chocolate, lumps will remain and the meringue will not become fluffy. This is not good, so make the meringue without sugar.* When warming the ■ ingredients in the microwave at the beginning, heat very lightly and then mix to melt. Please do not heat the ingredients repeatedly. Recipe by +pocopoco+

I often made gateau au chocolat in a silicon steamer in the microwave and wondered if there was another way.

(I used a gratin dish that was 13 cm diameter x 4 cm deep and a frying pan that was 20 cm diameter.)Keep an eye on the gateau and adjust the cooking time accordingly. Recipe by Hokkori-no -
Cream-free Moist & Rich Gateau au Chocolat Cream-free Moist & Rich Gateau au Chocolat
This is my first plain gateau chocolat after several trials. I tried with milk chocolate or reduced the amount of sugar...This is quite similar to my green tea gateau chocolat. I like these recipes.Milk chocolate is too sweet for this recipe so use dark chocolate.If you double the quantities you can make a 18-cm round cake but remember it will take about 60 minutes to bake.If you whip the meringue too stiff the resultant cake might rise too much.I recommend you chill overnight and serve the following day! For a 12 cm [4.7 in] round cake tin (for an 18-cm cake, double the quantities). Recipe by Hamumaki -

Rich Gateau au Chocolat Rich Gateau au Chocolat
I really like rich gateau au chocolat, so I modified the recipe my way.The texture will not turn out right if you over-bake it, so I recommend stopping when a creamy batter comes out when checking with a skewer. If the temperature of the batter goes down, the chocolate will cause the batter to harden, so keep the eggs at room temperature. It is best eaten the next day onward. For 15 cm [5.9 in] round mold.

I love chocolate gateaus because you can really taste the chocolate. That's why I made my own variation that suits my taste. It's moist, rich, and bittersweet - perfect for adult guests. My favorite way to eat it is to slice a small piece and serve with some whipped cream.I recommend you use unsalted butter. I used "Ghana" black chocolate bar for the chocolate. Take care when folding in the mixture from step 1 because it becomes difficult to blend when it's cooled down. Recipe by Yukiline -
