Another fabulous flourless cake:
Flourless Chocolate Cake (French)
7 oz (200 g) semisweet chocolate (45-50 % cocoa)
3/4 cup (180 g) butter
1 cup (200 g) sugar
4 eggs, separated
�� 1. Preheat oven to 350deg F (Gas mark 4 or 180 deg C).
�� 2. Line a 9 in (23 cm) cake tin with greaseproof or other non-stick
paper and grease the tin.
�� 3. Break the chocolate into small pieces and melt it with butter over
hot water.
�� 4. Beat the egg yolks with half of the sugar.
�� 5. Fold in the melted butter and chocolate mixture.
�� 6. Beat egg whites until frothy by using an electric mixer; gradually
add the remaining sugar, beating until stiff peaks form.
�� 7. Fold in the beaten egg whites.
�� 8. Bake at 350 degrees until a wooden pick inserted in center comes out
clean, approximately 40 minutes. Please note that cakes of this type will
collapse and look like a pie because no flour is used.
�� 9. Use a knife to separate the cake from the non-stick paper. Please
observe that the cake is quite sticky!
The Flourless Chocolate Cake may be served warm or cold with whipped cream. The
cream may be dusted with cocoa powder before serving, and the cake may be
dusted with powdered sugar.
