1/2 cup butter or margarine
1/2 cup Gold Medal® all-purpose flour

1/2 cup semisweet chocolate chips
2 tablespoons butter or margarine
2 tablespoons light corn syrup
1/2 cup whipped cream

Recipe



1. Heat oven to 325ºF. Grease bottom and side of springform pan, 8x2 1/2 inches, or round pan 9x1 1/2 inches. Melt 1 package chocolate chips and 1/2 cup butter in 2-quart heavy saucepan over medium heat; cool 5 minutes. Stir in flour until smooth. Stir in egg yolks until well blended.
2. Beat egg whites in large bowl with electric mixer on high speed until foamy. Beat in sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time, until soft peaks form. Gently stir chocolate mixture into egg whites. Spread in pan.
