F l o u r l e s s Chocolate Cake...

This cake may sound so fancy but preparing is not hard at all. Flourless cakes are simply made of eggyolks,dark chocolate, butter and coffee liqeuer. The chocolate is melted with the butter over a double boiler while the yolks are beaten until pale and doubles in volume or at ribbon stage. Ribbon stage is when the mixture leaves a ribbon trail on the surface when the whip attachment is lifted. Technical but worth it. Both prepared mixtures are folded together and just add the coffee liqeuer. Having a whole bottle of Kahlua or the coffee -rum liqeuer would make endless luscious desserts and this is one of them. Flourless chocolate cake I must say is best eaten after it has been chilled. Chewy and fudgy on the inside...
