Tips

  • Bake after preheating the oven.
  • You can replace granulated sugar and dark brown sugar with light brown sugar.
  • If it's too sweet for you, you can use 20g less sugar.
  • I took it out of the oven and tapped it after 20 minutes to make the crack.
  • It tastes better when you use good quality dark chocolate and cocoa powder.
  • It tastes better if you put it in an airtight container or wrap it in plastic wrap and refrigerate it.
