We made this at a friend's house. Re-posted by request.
Preheat oven to 200 Celsius.
4 eggs separated
300 grams good dark chocolate
100 grams sugar
125 grams butter
2 Tablespoons flour
Melt butter and chocolate in double boiler slowly.
In another bowl whisk egg yolks with the sugar until light and fluffy. Add the beaten egg yolk/sugar mixture to the melted chocolate and add the flour.
In a separate bowl beat egg whites until very stiff and then fold into the chocolate mixture.
Bake in greased 9" round pan for about 15 minutes.

ReplyDeleteSuper
ReplyDeleteCould you detail what types of bird eggs are in the photo please Muffy ?
ReplyDeleteThose are chicken eggs. As for which breed produced them, we’ll leave that to the experts.
DeleteAha! This is from my country: Un "moelleux au chocolat (tiède)".
ReplyDeleteLooks great, thanks for sharing. Some rough conversions for the convenience of our fellow Americans:
ReplyDelete200 Celsius = 400 Fahrenheit
300 grams = 10.5 ounces
100 grams = 1/2 cup
125 grams = 1 stick
Thanks for the conversions — we don't do metric.
DeleteHow wonderful! Thank you so much!
ReplyDeleteOn a Chambord plate, how lovely. And those deep yellow yolks!
ReplyDeleteSurely looks a lot like Sachertorte. Not exactly worth a flight across the pond but definitely worth a stop by the Sacher hotel if one is in Vienna. They actually ship them here as well.
ReplyDeleteAmazing !!!!!!!!!!
