Preparation

- In a large bowl, beat the eggs with the sugar until creamy, light, and foamy.
- Gently fold the melted chocolate into the egg and sugar mixture.
- Incorporate the sifted flour, salt, and chopped walnuts, mixing carefully to maintain airiness for a spongy texture.
- Pour the batter into the prepared mold, smoothing the surface with a spatula.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean or with moist crumbs.
