She tried this chocolate cake already a while ago, she found the recipe in Czech Elle from October 2013 and wanted to surprise him with a sweet treat. Preheat oven to 210 degrees Celsius; butter the bottom of the baking form. Put the pieces of chocolate along with butter and melt it either in microwave or in water / steam bath and stir together until smooth texture achieved. Beat whole eggs together with sugar until they create a sort of foam and double their volume. Add slowly the flour and the chocolate-butter mixture, stir together and pour into the buttered form. Bake for about 10 minutes depending on the form and how high is the dough. The fondant should be soft and runny in the middle so you are influencing its structure by the timing. If you'd like to have the fondant firmer, bake it longer.
Bon Appetit!
