Flourless chocolate mini cake: Darkness on my plate!

 Yesterday, I tried to finish all my work, haha, anyway I couldn't -*-. So, I think that I should make myself happy by stop working today.

 I started my day by thinking about what I wanted to bake, and chocolate cake was on my top list. Little chocolate cake with whipped cream and berries, sound great, right?
This recipe is flourless chocolate cake, so it will be gluten free too, ^^, if you can't eat gluten product this is the cake for you.
Because it doesn't contain flour, the texture of the cake is moist and soft. Don't worry that the cake shrink after baking, it should be. You can use higher percentage chocolate, but keep in mind that higher chocolate percentage, the drier the cake will be, so you may need to reduce the baking time too.
