2 Done | Put the dark chocolate into a heatproof bowl set over a pan of hot, but not boiling, water, making sure the base of the bowl does not touch the water. Leave to melt, stirring occasionally, then remove the bowl from the pan. |
3 Done | Whisk the butter and sugar together in a bowl until light and fluffy. Gradually add the eggs, beating well after each egg is added. |
