Instructions: L-2 (6 oz.) bitter, semi or your choice chocolate bars, grated(2/3 c)

You need 2 bowls, a small one for the yolks and a large one for the whites in which you will mix cake. Beat egg whites until stiff with an electric mixer.

Beat in sugar l tablespoon at a time. Add one yolk at a time continuing beating at a lower speed. Mix together in a bowl the dry ingredients and gently sprinkle a little over the top of the egg mixture, carefully folding in thoroughly.

Pour into an ungreased tube pan and bake for l hour at 350 degrees. (No slamming of doors or yelling please!) Remove from oven and cool upside down over a towel (paper works great). When cool, carefully cut around the outside of the pan and dont forget; the center needs to be cut around as well. Pull out the cake with the center funnel and cut between the bottom of the cake and the pan.

Lift onto a platter.

This cake is very easy to prepare and is eaten quickly. You can wrap well in plastic wrap and the in tin foil. This cake freezes well.

[My family and friends enjoy this so I can never make just one or two. Buy and grate several chocolate bars and put in a covered container so that whenever you need the 2/3 c. it is readily available.]
