🍳 Preparation Steps
  1. 1

    Melt the dark chocolate with the butter gently in a double boiler or microwave. Mix until you get a smooth and shiny texture. Let it cool slightly.

  2. 2

    In a bowl, whisk the eggs with the sugar until the mixture becomes slightly foamy and increases slightly in volume.

  3. 3

    Pour the warm chocolate-butter mixture into the bowl with the sweetened eggs. Mix gently to obtain a homogeneous and shiny preparation.

  4. 4

    Sift together the flour, baking powder and salt. Incorporate them gradually into the preparation, mixing gently with a spatula to avoid lumps and not to overwork the dough.

  5. 5

    Add the milk gradually while mixing to obtain a homogeneous, dense but flexible dough.

  6. 6

    Lightly butter a round mold compatible with the Airfryer (16–18 cm in diameter). Pour the dough into it and smooth the surface with a spatula to distribute evenly.

  7. 7

    Preheat your Airfryer to 160°C. Place the mold in the basket and cook for 28 to 32 minutes. Check for doneness by inserting the tip of a knife into the center: it should come out slightly moist but not covered in raw batter.

  8. 8

    Let the cake cool completely before unmolding to avoid breaking. Wait until it is cold before proceeding with the glaze.

  9. 9

    Melt the chocolate with the butter and liquid cream in a double boiler or microwave. Mix until you get a smooth, shiny and homogeneous cream.

  10. 10

    Spread the glaze generously on top of the cake using a spatula. Let it set slightly before serving.

Tips & Tricks
  • Cut the cake when it is completely cold to get neat and regular slices. For an original variant, replace the liquid cream with coconut milk for a softer and exotic note. For an even more melting heart, reduce the cooking time by 2 minutes and let the cake rest for 10 minutes before taking it out of the mold. The residual heat will finish the cooking gently.
Enjoy your meal!
