This Flourless Rich Truffle Mud Cake is a decadent dessert that is sure to impress. It is perfect for chocolate lovers and those seeking a rich and indulgent treat. Unlike other chocolate cakes, this cake does not require any flour, and instead, uses eggs, chocolate, cream, and orange liqueur to deliver an incredibly dense and delicious cake. The cointreau complements the chocolate and adds depth to the flavor. The key to success with this cake is to watch it closely as it bakes and not to overcook it.
