– 200 g of dark chocolate
– 200 g of butter
– 200 g of sugar

Instructions:
1. Heat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius. Prepare a baking dish, lubricating it with oil or covering with parchment paper.
2. Melt the chocolate and butter in a water bath or in a microwave stove until a smooth mixture is obtained. Cool a little.
3. In a large bowl, beat the eggs and sugar until lush mass is formed. Gradually add melted chocolate sauce, continuing to whip.
4. Sprinkle flour, baking powder and a pinch of salt into the same bowl. Mix thoroughly so that all the ingredients are connected well.
5. Lubricate the peel of one orange on a fine grater and add to the dough. Squeeze the juice of two oranges and add it as well.
6. Mix the dough to evenly distribute the orange zest and juice.

8. While the cake cools down, prepare the glaze. Beat sour cream with powdered sugar until lush texture is formed.
