Kladdkaka (Swedish Sticky Chocolate Cake)
One serving has 300 kcal and 5 g protein, and at least a fifth of a woman's daily need of copper (38%), manganese (23%) and selenium (20%). Ready in 35 minutes.

- Preparation: 15 min
- Cooking: 20 min
- Makes: 1 serving (78.7 g)
- Difficulty: Easy
- Diets: Vegetarian
- Contains: alcohol, dairy, egg, gluten
Ingredients
- 15 g Butter, unsalted
- 25 g Sugar
- 15 g Eggs, whole, raw
- 15 g Flour, all-purpose
- 8 g Cocoa powder
- 0.5 g Vanilla extract
- 0.2 g Salt
Method
- Melt the butter, then whisk it with the sugar and egg until smooth. Makes 1 of 8 slices of a whole cake; multiply the recipe by 8 for a full 20 cm cake.
- Sift in the flour, cocoa powder and salt, and stir in the vanilla, mixing just until smooth without overbeating.
- Pour into a lined and buttered tin and bake at 175 C (350 F) for 18-22 minutes; the centre should still look slightly underbaked and wobble a little when the tin is shaken.
- Cool in the tin for at least 20 minutes; the cake firms up on the outside while staying dense and gooey in the middle.
- Serve at room temperature, often with lightly whipped cream, dusted with a little extra cocoa if you like.
