Method
 

Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 160°C (320°F; fan) or 170°C (338°F; conventional) and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
  2. In a heatproof bowl, combine the chopped dark chocolate and butter. Melt over simmering water, stirring until smooth, then mix in the vanilla extract.
  3. In a separate large bowl, whisk eggs, caster sugar, and demerara sugar on high speed for about 5 minutes until light and fluffy.
  4. Sift together the plain flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt in another bowl. Gently fold in the chocolate chips.
  5. Fold the warm chocolate mixture into the whipped egg mixture carefully to maintain airiness.
  6. Gradually fold the sifted dry ingredients into the wet mixture, mixing gently until combined.
  7. Scoop the batter onto the baking tray, leaving space between each scoop.
  8. Bake for about 12-14 minutes until edges pull away slightly and tops appear set but soft in the center.
  9. Remove from oven, optionally sprinkle with sea salt, and cool on the tray for about 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
