Small Flourless Rum Chocolate Cake - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    6 ounces dark chocolate, coarsely chopped
    1/2 cup butter, cubed
    1/2 cup demerara sugar
    5 eggs
    1 teaspoon vanilla extract
    1/2 cup cocoa powder
    1/3 cup rum (dark or light)
    chocolate- rum glaze
    4 ounces dark chocolate, coarsely chopped
    3 tablespoons butter
    1 tablespoon rum
    1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Preparation
    Melt together chocolate and butter over low heat, stirring until smooth. Remove from heat and transfer to a mixing bowl.
    Add sugar, mix for 1 -2 minutes until melted.
    Beat in the eggs one at a time, mixing until smooth between each addition.
    Stir in the vanilla extract, cocoa powder, and rum until well mixed.
    Pour batter into the greased 8-inch baking pan and bake for 25-30 minutes at 190\u00b0C, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out relatively clean with a few crumbs. Do not over-bake or the cake will become dry. Allow cake to cool in pan for 5 minutes before inverting onto a serving plate.
    Meanwhile, prepare the glaze: in a small saucepan, melt together chocolate and butter, mixing until smooth.
    Stir in the rum and vanilla extract.
    Spread evenly over cooled cake.
