  2. Butter pan and place paper round in the bottom.
  3. Fill a medium pot 2-inches deep with water and set over medium-high heat.
  4. Place a large metal or glass bowl on top to create a steam bath or “bain Marie.”
  5. Place chocolate and butter in bowl, stir until melted, well combined and smooth.

  7. Slowly stir in the smooth chocolate mixture until well combined.
  8. Sift together flour and cinnamon and stir into chocolate mixture.

  10. Place pan into a large roasting pan, fill roasting pan with enough boiling water to come halfway up the side of round pan.
  11. Cover roasting pan with tin foil, enclosing round pan inside.
  12. Place in a preheated 350°F oven and steam for 11/2 hours, or until middle of cake has set.
