Fudgy Flourless Skillet Chocolate Cake

This simple cake is fast to put together, and the presentation is fun an rustic since it is made in a cast iron skillet. The skillet helps the cake to bake evenly and gives it a slightly thick, and delicious, crust around the edges.  We melt the chocolate and butter right in the skillet, to save dishes.

4 ounces unsweetened baking chocolate

1/2 cup butter or 1/2 cup coconut oil + a pinch of salt

Melting chocolate for chocolate skillet cake

Instructions:

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.

In a 8-10 inch cast iron skillet over medium-low heat, melt the butter. Once the butter has started to melt, add in the chocolate and reduce heat to just over low.

In a  medium mixing bowl, mix eggs, vanilla, cocoa powder, honey, and sea salt until eggs are completely mixed and there are no more dry pockets of cocoa powder.

Use a pot holder to handle the skillet and combine the butter mixture from the skillet into the egg mixture in the mixing bowl using a fork or whisk.

Pour batter back in warm skillet. Bake for 25 minutes, or until center is slightly undercooked, but not liquid.

Allow to cool slightly and serve.
