Kladdkaka is a popular Swedish chocolate cake known for its rich and gooey texture. Here’s a recipe:
Ingredients:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 4 large eggs
- 1 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- Powdered sugar for dusting
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch round cake pan and set aside.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, sugar, and salt until well combined.
- In a separate large bowl, whisk the eggs until light and frothy. Add the melted butter and vanilla extract and whisk until well combined.
- Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and whisk until a smooth batter forms.
- Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth out the top with a spatula.
- Bake the cake for 20-25 minutes or until the top is set but the center is still slightly gooey. Do not overbake as this cake is meant to be dense and gooey.
- Allow the cake to cool for 10-15 minutes before removing it from the pan.
- Dust the top of the cake with powdered sugar and serve warm or at room temperature.
Kladdkaka is typically served with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream on the side. Enjoy!
