  • 1 cup  semisweet chocolate chips or chopped chocolate
  • 1/2 cup salted butter
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup cocoa powder
  • 1 tsp espresso powder

For the chocolate ganache:

  • 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips or chopped chocolate
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
  2. Grease an 8-Inch round cake pan with nonstick cooking spray. Cut a piece of parchment to fit the bottom of the pan. Place it in the bottom of the pan and spray it with nonstick cooking spray. Set aside. 
  3. For the cake, melt chocolate and butter in a large microwave-safe bowl, and heat until the butter is melted and the chips are soft, about one minute.
  4. Stir until the chocolate is melted and the mixture is smooth.
  5. Add the sugar and vanilla extract and stir to combine. 
  6. Add the eggs and stir until smooth. Add the cocoa powder and espresso powder and stir until just combined.
  7. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake the cake for ~23 minutes
  8. Let the cake cool on a wire cooling rack for 10 minutes.
  9. Make the chocolate ganache. Combine the chocolate and cream in a medium microwave-safe bowl, and heat until the cream is very hot so it will melt the chocolate.
  10. Spread the chocolate ganache glaze evenly over the cooled cake. Top with fresh raspberries and sifted powder sugar
