Ingredients
-
7 oz. bittersweet chocolate (European chocolate)

Grate or shave the chocolate so that it will melt uniformly. Melt butter until fully melted and very hot, then stir in the chocolate and continue to stir until the chocolate is melted. Whisk sugar and egg yolks together until light and then whisk into the chocolate/butter mixture until smooth.
Then whisk in flours and continue to whisk until batter is smooth.
Beat egg whites until they hold a stiff peak.
Briskly stir 2 heaping tablespoonfuls of beaten egg white into your chocolate mixture, then fold in remaining.
