Preparation

- Break the chocolate into a saucepan of simmering water and stir until melted. Alternatively, melt in the microwave for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- In a bowl, beat the butter and sugar with a wooden spoon until light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes.
- Gradually add the eggs, incorporating a little flour if the mixture begins to curdle. Stir in the remaining flour with the melted and cooled chocolate and milk until smooth.
- Spread the mixture into the cake pan and bake for 50-55 minutes or until set in the center and a skewer comes out clean. Allow to cool for 10 minutes, then unmold and cool completely.
