Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 150 °C. Line with greaseproof paper a 9-inch (23 cm) spring-form cake tin.

Step 2

Melt the chocolate in a metal or glass bowl placed over a pot of barely simmering water, stirring constantly. Once melted, remove the bowl from the heat and let cool slightly.

Step 3

Whip the egg whites with 50 g sugar until the whites hold a soft peak (when the whites curl when the beaters are lifted). Set aside.

Step 4

In another bowl, whip the egg yolks with the remaining 50 g of sugar and the vanilla until doubled in volume, about 4-6 minutes.

Step 5

Fold the melted chocolate mixture into the whipped yolks, and then fold the whites into the mixture in 2 additions. Spread the batter gently into the prepared cake tin.

Step 6

Bake the torta for 25-30 minutes. As soon as you remove the cake from the oven it will begin to fall, but it is supposed to.

Step 7

Cool the cake to room temperature then serve.

Step 8

I prefer to serve the cake warm with berries and non-dairy vanilla yogurt.
