- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- Pinch of salt
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

- Sift together cocoa powder, flour, baking powder, and salt in a separate bowl; gently fold into the egg mixture.
- Spread the batter evenly on the prepared sheet and bake for 12-15 minutes or until it springs back when touched.
