HERE'S THE RECIPE OF MY WONDERFUL CHOCOLATE CAKE!
To prepare my chocolate cake, chop the dark chocolate and cook it in a Bain-Marie until it's creamy and smooth. Dice the cold butter and add it two dices at a time at the melt chocolate keeping it hot and make sure it's well absorbed before adding more dices. When all the butter will be melt take away the pot from the fire and let the mixture cool down.
Meanwhile, peel the eggs and whip the yolks (but DON'T THROW THE WHITES YOU'LL NEED THEM!) with half of the sugar: whisk it very well with a mixer to obtain a frothy and pale mixture. While you still whip it add the chocolate mixture.
Add to the well amalgamated mixture the hot milk and the flour and mix them well with all the other ingredients: you should have an homogeneous and lump-free mixture.
In a different pot, whip the whites with a pinch of salt and the remaining sugar: mix it until you get a white compact cream, then, with a wooden spoon, incorporate the whites with the rest, mixing it from the bottom to the top.
Pour the mixture in a baking tin and bake it in a pre-heated oven at 180° for 25/30 minutes. Remember that when you take it out from the oven it's very fragile and you have to proceed with caution if you don't want to smash it!
I hope you'll like my chocolate cake!
Stay creative,
