The biggest problem was choosing the right tin, as G had used a French one and I wasn't sure which one of mine to use. In the end, I used a tin I use to make quiches, 22cm. It has a loose base which was very useful. The recipe: 100g chocolate [my friend used cooking chocolate in her recipe. but I used supermarket's own dark] 75g softish butter 3 eggs 100g caster sugar 40g plain flour 1 tspn baking powder Oven 180C Grease and flour a 20/22cm tin Break up chocolate and cut butter into pieces.
