Chocolate cake

250 g dark chocolate (70%)

in pieces

250 g butter

in pieces

5 egg yolks

150 g sugar

5 egg whites

1 pinch of salt

150 g Greek yoghurt

Chocolate cake

Place the chocolate in a thin-walled bowl and melt it over a gently simmering water bath on medium heat (level 5-6). Add the butter, allow it to melt, and stir it in. Beat the egg yolks with half of the sugar using the whisk attachment of a mixer for approximately 4 minutes, until the mixture becomes lighter in colour and slightly thickened. Place the egg whites and salt in a tall container, whip with the mixer's whisk until stiff. Add the remaining sugar and continue whisking until the egg whites are glossy. Preheat the cooking space with hot air humid to 180 °C. Stir the chocolate-butter mixture into the egg yolk mixture. Fold in a little of the whipped egg whites, then gently fold in the remaining egg whites. Pour the cake mixture into the prepared tin, place it on a wire shelf, and insert into the preheated cooking space. Bake for approximately 40 minutes. Remove the cake, allow it to cool in the tin on a wire rack for approximately 10 minutes. Remove from the tin and serve warm or at room temperature.
