Step 2: Preheat the oven
Set the temperature to 180ºC (350ºF/ gas mark 4).
Step 3: Melt the chocolate
Place the cooking pan on a high heat and add the water. Place the medium bowl on top of the cooking pan, taking care that the bottom of the bowl does not touch the water.
Add the chocolate and butter and allow to melt, stirring occasionally. Once melted, remove from the heat.
Step 4: Add ingredients to chocolate
Add the egg yolks to the chocolate and mix well. Stir in the sugar and chopped almonds. Remove the bowl from the top of the pan and set aside.
Step 5: Whip egg whites and mix with chocolate
Pour the egg whites into the large bowl, add a pinch of salt and whisk until very stiff. If you turn the bowl upside down and nothing falls, you've reached the right point.
Add the egg whites to the chocolate mix and combine well.
Step 6: Bake
Butter the baking tin thoroughly, sprinkle in some flour (removing any excess) and pour in the chocolate mix. Place it the middle of the oven to bake for 50 minutes.
After that time, use a toothpick to check if it's cooked. If it is clean, without batter, it's ready. If not, cook for another 10 minutes.
Step 7: Serve
It can be served as it is, with icing sugar, vanilla ice cream or whipped cream, or you can choose one of the suggested glazes from our website.
