- 1-2 cups fresh raspberries
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 200C/400F.

- Place dark chocolate and butter in a bowl, then melt using a double boiler or microwave.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together eggs and sugar.

- Bake for 15 to 18 minutes, being careful not to over bake.
- While the cake is cooling, prepare the glaze.

- Pour a bit of the cream over the chocolate to break it, then gradually add the rest of the cream, stirring until you have a smooth ganache.
- Pour the ganache over the cake.
- Allow the ganache to stop dripping, then decorate the cake with fresh berries.
