Chocolate cake
Preheat the oven to 390°F (gas mark 6).
Put the sugar and eggs in the bowl with the metal blade and blend until light and
fluffy.
Add the flour and blend.
Melt the unsalted butter and chocolate in a saucepan over a low heat.
While the machine is running, add the melted chocolate via the feed tube.
Pour the preparation into a buttered mold and bake in the oven.
You can also bake individual cakes, which reduces the cooking time.
For a softer centre, add a small piece of chocolate.
Serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or coconut sorbet.
