Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 3 cups semisweet chocolate chips Divided; 2 cups for melting and 1 cup for folding in.
  • 3 large eggs Should be at room temperature.
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a pie plate or a 9-inch springform pan and set it aside.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. Slowly mix in the cooled melted chocolate until fully combined.
  5. Gently fold in the flour, baking powder, and salt until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  6. Fold in the remaining 1 cup of chocolate chips, making sure they are evenly distributed.
  7. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top.
Baking
  1. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes, or until the edges are set, and the center is puffed but still soft.
  2. Remove from the oven and let it cool completely before slicing.
Serving
  1. 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.
