This perfect dark chocolate cake is the ideal ending to a meal, thanks to its rich texture and flavor. Dusted with cocoa powder and served with whipped cream, it's the ultimate dessert. Enjoy the cake at room temperature or chilled — refrigerating it transforms the texture and makes it deliciously dense.

Ingredients
Directions
Special equipment:
a 9-inch springform pan- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F; spray a 9-inch springform pan with nonstick cooking spray.
- Heat the chocolate chips and butter in a medium saucepan over medium-low heat, stirring frequently, until melted and smooth. Add the sugar, cocoa powder, salt and vanilla and stir until no lumps remain and the mixture is smooth. Remove from the heat and let cool for a few minutes.
- Meanwhile, beat the egg whites in a large bowl with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until they form stiff peaks, 2 to 3 minutes.
- Stir the egg yolks into the cooled chocolate mixture, then stir in about a quarter of the whipped egg whites. Scrape this lightened chocolate mixture into the remaining whipped egg whites and gently fold until mostly combined (it's okay if there are some streaks of egg white). Pour into the prepared pan and bake until the center of the cake no longer wiggles, 40 to 45 minutes.
- Let cool completely in the pan on a wire rack (the cake will deflate slightly), about 1 hour. Unlock the pan and dust the top of the cake with cocoa powder. Cut into slices and serve with whipped cream.
