Deep, dark chocolate and cocoa powder melt together into a glossy, intensely rich batter here, with coconut sugar adding a warm, caramel-like sweetness and room-temperature eggs whisked in for that signature dense, fudgy structure. There's no flour anywhere in this recipe to begin with — it gets its body entirely from melted chocolate and eggs, baked low and slow until the edges set while the center stays just barely wobbly. That gentle bake is what gives the crumb its glossy, almost molten interior once it's fully cooled and unmolded. A dusting of powdered sugar and a scatter of fresh berries on top is really all it needs. It's a naturally solid choice for a gluten free dessert table, and rich enough that a small slice goes a long way.
