1 rounded teaspoon baking powder
3 large eggs, preferably free-range
3 rounded tablespoons cocoa powder
8 tablespoons warm water
Handful flaked almonds
3 3/4 ounces cooking chocolate, broken up

Directions
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C / gas 4). Beat the

Add the eggs and mix it all together. Then mix the cocoa powder with 8 tablespoons of warm water,
until smooth.

Fold the chocolate paste, almonds, and chocolate pieces into the cake mixture. Pour the mixture into
a greased baking tin, spreading it out evenly. Bake for about 18 to 20 minutes.
