There is no such thing as too much chocolate!
This cake is a cross between a brownie and angel cake. It gets a lift from the egg whites alone, so no baking powder or soda is needed. It is light and soft- almost sponge-like. But, I think the best thing about this cake is that it is not too sweet and not too rich so you can self indulge and not feel too guilty! Ingredients: 3 oz bittersweet chocolate, finely chopped ½ cup plus 1/3 cup granulated sugar, divided 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder 1/8 tsp salt ½ cup boiling water 3 large eggs, separated, at room temperature ½ tsp pure vanilla extract ¼ cup all-purpose flour 3 large egg whites, at room temperature ½ tsp lemon juice 2 to 3 tsp icing sugar for dusting Directions: Preheat oven to 375°F.

Do you ever lose sleep over what to do with the remaining bread sitting in your fridge? Has your bread lost its freshness? The answer to your problem is chocolate bread pudding!
Bread in my opinion is one of the best foods ever made. It is so unbelievably, indescribably delicious when it is warm and fresh out of the oven. But then, after just a couple of days, it's glory fades. It starts to become dry and crumbly or chewy and sometimes even stale. What do you do when you find your bread in this situation? One clever solution is to make bread pudding. And, even if you are not the owner of stale bread, try this recipe. I bet it'll fly out of the pan and into the bellies of your guests in records time!
