Can I have another piece of chocolate cake?

I've had some repeated requests for my gluten-free chocolate mudcake recipe, so here it is.

Ingredients
150g dark chocolate (I prefer at least 70%)
150g butter
1/3 cup cocoa powder
1/3 cup hot water
150g ground almonds
150g brown sugar
50g rice flour
1/2 tsp baking powder
4 eggs (separated)

Method
Preheat fan forced oven to 180.
Line a 23cm spring-form tin with baking paper.
Melt the butter and the dark chocolate.
Mix together cocoa powder and hot water and add to the melted chocolate.
Mix in the egg yolks.
Mix together all dry ingredients, and stir in chocolate mixture.
Beat egg whites until stiff and fold into the mixture gently.
Bake for 45 minutes. If knife inserted in middle doesn't come out clean, cover cake with foil and continue to bake.

Serve with a dollop of creme fraice or whipped cream and enjoy!
