Préparation

  1. Prepare the batter
    In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, sugar, and honey until the mixture lightens slightly. Heat the cream until simmering, melt the chocolate in it, then pour the mixture into the egg and sugar mixture. Add the sifted flour, baking powder, almond flour, and cocoa powder. Finally, fold in the melted butter. The batter should be smooth and glossy.
  2. Baking
    Line a loaf pan with parchment paper. Pour the batter into the pan. Bake for 5 minutes at 200°C (400°F), then score the top of the cake with a knife. Return to the oven for about 35 minutes at 155°C (310°F). Check that the cake is cooked by inserting a knife into the center: if the blade comes out clean, the cake is ready. Remove from the pan and allow to cool.
