This cake was used as George & Liz's 'wedding' cake, aka - Tantalizing Taupe Torte or The Cake. Yes it's true that it calls for NO flour :) It is intense and delightful!
Melt in double boiler: 1 bag semi-sweet choc. chips & 1 c. butter – cut into chunks
Mix until turns lighter color: 5 eggs & ½ c. sugar
Mix thoroughly into eggs – 1 T. cocoa
Then mix in slowly to melted choc. mixture
Add 2 t. vanilla
Pour into spring form pan that has been buttered and sugared!
Bake at 325F for 40-50 mins with bain marie (A cookie sheet with H20 works fine too, just place on lower oven shelf.) It is done when a toothpick comes out clean that is inserted 2" in from the side. Let the cake 'rest' for 5 minutes in the pan, then remove the sides and turn on to presentation plate. Fantastic served with fresh raspberries!
