Method
Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a pie plate or a 9-inch springform pan and set it aside.
- In a heat-safe bowl, melt the butter with 2 cups of the chocolate chips until smooth using a double boiler or microwave at 50 percent power in 30-second intervals, stirring in between. Allow it to cool slightly.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the eggs, sugar, and vanilla extract on medium-high speed for about 3 minutes until the mixture is pale and fluffy.
- Slowly mix in the cooled melted chocolate until fully combined.
- Gently fold in the flour, baking powder, and salt until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Fold in the remaining 1 cup of chocolate chips, making sure they are evenly distributed.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top.
Baking
- Bake for 35 to 40 minutes, or until the edges are set, and the center is puffed but still soft.
- Remove from the oven and let it cool completely before slicing.
Serving
- Serve plain or topped with warm hot fudge, and optionally with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
Notes
To keep leftovers fresh, store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to three days, or refrigerate for about a week. You can also freeze individual slices for later.
