The texture is dense and fudgy, which is why one slice of this cake is enough to fulfill your sinful cravings. Moreover, the absence of gluten doesn't take away from the taste, but rather adds to the health value. It can be eaten on its own or topped with a dollop of whipped cream. A scoop of vanilla ice cream also pairs well with this cake.

HEALTH & BENEFITS

Dark chocolate, with 85% cocoa, contains more flavanols than milk chocolate and white chocolate. Flavanols are antioxidants that are helpful in reducing blood pressure and improving blood flow to the heart and brain. They also help in preventing cell damage and reducing inflammation. The eggs used in this recipe provide the body with high-quality protein, which helps in building and maintaining muscles and tissues. Moreover, consuming eggs in their whole form is beneficial compared to consuming egg whites only, as the yolk contains essential vitamins and minerals too. Butter, used in a moderate amount, also contains vitamins and minerals, along with healthy fats.
