Ingredients:
- 150g cream cheese
- 150g dark chocolate
- 4 eggs, separated
Method:
- Preheat oven to 160°C (140°C fan-forced).
- Grease and line the base of a 20cm cake tin.
- Place cream cheese and chocolate in a bowl over a saucepan of simmering water.
- Stir until just melted. Beat in egg yolks and set aside.
- Meanwhile, beat eggwhites until soft peaks form.
- Gently fold through chocolate mixture. Pour into prepared tin.
- Place cake tin in a larger baking pan.
- Pour in water so that it comes halfway up the side of the cake tin.
- Bake for 30 minutes.
- Turn off the oven and leave for a further 15 minutes without opening the door.
- Remove from oven and allow to cool completely, then refrigerate overnight.
- Run a knife around the cake to loosen it from the tin. Turn out onto a plate.
- Serve cake with double cream and fresh berries.
Notes:
- There is no sugar in this recipe. You could add some to the eggwhites if you prefer, or choose a semi-sweetened chocolate.Choose a cake tin that doesn’t have a loose bottom as this mixture will run out before setting.
