2 sticks (1 cup) unsalted butter
6 large eggs, at room temperature
Serves 18 Active: 15 min/Total: 55 min plus 3 hr chilling
Recipe
1. Heat oven to 425°F. Coat an 8 x 3-in. cake pan with nonstick spray. Line
bottom with wax paper; spray paper. Have a larger roasting pan ready.
2. Melt chips and butter together; stir until well blended.
3. Beat eggs in a large bowl with mixer on high 7 minutes, or until tripled
and soft peaks form. Fold in chocolate mixture until blended. Pour into cake
pan.
4. Place large pan in oven; place cake pan inside. Pour boiling water into
roasting pan to come halfway up sides of cake pan. Cover cake pan loosely with
foil; bake 40 minutes. (Cake looks soft but sets when cold.)
5. Cool cake in pan on a wire rack. Cover and refrigerate 3 hours, or until
firm. Invert on serving platter; shake down sharply to release cake. Peel off
paper.
6. If desired, lay five 3/4-in.-wide strips of paper 3/4 in. apart on cake.
Sift cocoa between strips; carefully lift paper. Repeat in opposite direction,
this time sifting on confectioners’ sugar.
