Dark Chocolate Truffle Torte

This is a dark chocolate truffle torte I made, then garnished with icing sugar dusted on top in the shapes of a teddy bear, a shooting star, and a moon. This isn't necessary, but it just makes the dessert look a little prettier, I think. I also spread a simple chocolate glaze on top of the torte, since the torte is made with dark chocolate and may be a little bitter. The glaze and the icing sugar should add a little sweetness to the torte.

Dark Chocolate Truffle Torte
100 grams dark chocolate (85% cocoa), broken into pieces
1/2 cup unsalted butter, cut into cubes
2/3 cup heavy cream
3 large eggs
1 cup granulated (white) sugar
1 tablespoon unsweetened cocoa powder
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
pinch salt

Preheat oven to 350◦F. Line a 9-inch pie plate with foil and spray foil with cooking spray.
Melt the chocolate and butter together, either in the microwave or on the stove, and stir until smooth. Add remaining ingredients and mix well. Pour into prepared pan.
Bake for about 35 minutes, until edges are set but center is still slightly jiggly. Chill well before serving and garnish as desired.

I baked mine for 35 minutes, and the edges formed a brownie like crust, but the middle was still very fudgey and rich. I wanted to make sure it was fully cooked. The center will still be slightly jiggly, but will set upon cooling. 
You can use a chocolate with a lower cocoa content for a sweeter tart, or use semi-sweet chocolate and reduce the amount of sugar. 
This tart is fudgey and quite rich, especially if you use sweeter chocolate  But it is decadent and chocolaty and I really like it, as would any dark chocolate fan. A glaze really helps pull it all together, I will feature that tomorrow.
