Easy to prepare and intense chocolate flavor! This cake was made entirely by 13-daughter. No help from me at all. Just 5 ingredients - this recipe lets the ingredients speak for themselves. Chocolate, butter, sugar, eggs, and only 2T flour.
13 daughter tells me that the batter seemed way too thick before she folded in the beaten egg whites. The cake is baked in a springform pan, and it had a delightful crunchy crust on the outside.
This cake did require several bowls, but it came together quickly. Its a good cake to have in one's repertoire.
As a side note - this book is to be used for our June cookbook club dinner.
