Ingredients

Scale

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 cup Chocolate syrup
  • 1/2 cup Unsalted butter, melted
  • 3 large Eggs
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 cup Granulated sugar
  • 1 cup All-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon Baking powder

Add-ins

  • 1 cup Semisweet chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven and Prepare Pan: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and lightly flour your baking dish to ensure the cake doesn’t stick.
  2. Combine Butter and Chocolate Syrup: In a mixing bowl, blend the melted unsalted butter with the chocolate syrup until smooth and well combined, creating the rich chocolate base for the cake.
  3. Mix Eggs and Sugar: Add the eggs and granulated sugar into the chocolate mixture. Beat thoroughly until the batter is glossy and fully blended, which will help incorporate air for a tender texture.
  4. Add Dry Ingredients: Sift together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and vanilla extract. Gradually fold these dry ingredients into the wet mixture, stirring gently until just combined to avoid overmixing.
  5. Fold in Chocolate Chips: Carefully fold in the semisweet chocolate chips to distribute gooey pockets of chocolate throughout the cake batter.
  6. Pour and Spread Batter: Pour the prepared batter evenly into your baking dish, smoothing the top with a spatula for uniform cooking.
  7. Bake the Cake: Place the baking dish in the oven and bake for 35-40 minutes. The edges should be firm while a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with moist crumbs, indicating a perfectly gooey center.
  8. Cool Before Serving: Remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool in the baking dish for 10-15 minutes. This rest time helps the cake set slightly while keeping the inside soft and ooey gooey before slicing and serving.

Notes

  • Ensure not to overbake to keep the cake moist and gooey inside.
  • Use high-quality chocolate syrup and chips for the richest flavor.
  • For an extra indulgent touch, serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
  • The cake can be stored in an airtight container for up to 3 days at room temperature.
  • To intensify the chocolate flavor, consider adding a teaspoon of instant espresso powder to the batter.
