Ingredients

  • 1 cup non-dairy butter substitute
  • 8 oz semisweet chocolate chopped
  • 1 ¼ cups sugar
  • 1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 6 large eggs lightly beaten

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350ºF. Line 9" springform pan with parchment paper on bottom and grease sides liberally.
  • Using double boiler or large saucepan over low heat, melt non-dairy butter substitute. Add cut up chocolate and stir until melted. Remove from heat.
  • Sift in cocoa powder and sugar. Whisk to completely combine.
  • Add in beaten eggs and whisk until well blended.
  • Pour batter into prepared pan and back for 35 minutes. Cake should be almost completely firm when done. Do not overcook.
