Flourless Chocolate Bundt Cakes

These gluten and nutmeal free chocolate bundt cakes are the most delightful moist, dense chocolate cakes I've ever tasted. There are only 3 ingredients, eggs, chocolate and butter and the Tefal Cuisine Companion whips the batter to perfection in a matter of minutes. The cakes are cooked in a Bain Marie which gives them the most light texture and they're perfect to serve with whipped cream and fresh berries for dessert or afternoon tea.


Note: I used a mixture of 45% cocoa and 70% cocoa chocolate to give a perfect chocolate balance, neither too sweet nor too bitter.
Note: I use eggs from an 800 gm carton of 12 eggs.
Note: It's important to use good quality Cooking Chocolate. Plaistowe or Cadbury
