- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, alternating with the boiling water. Mix until smooth.
- Pour the batter into the prepared tin and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
- Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack.
Making the Sauce
- In a saucepan over low heat, combine chopped Bar-One bars and cream.
- Stir gently until the chocolate melts and the sauce is smooth. Don’t boil it.
- Once the cake is cool, pour the warm Bar-One sauce generously over the top.
Serving
- Serve warm with vanilla ice cream or just as-is.
Notes
For variation, use room-temperature eggs and butter for smoother batter. Sift cocoa and flour for a lighter crumb. Add boiling water slowly. Optional toppings include extra chopped Bar-One pieces or whipped cream.
