—
Instructions:
1. Melt the chocolate– In a heatproof bowl over a double boiler (or in the microwave in short bursts), melt the chocolate with the butter. Stir until smooth and let it cool slightly.
2. Whisk the egg yolks– In a separate bowl, whisk the egg yolks with half of the sugar until pale and creamy. Slowly mix in the melted chocolate.
3. Beat the egg whites – In another clean bowl, beat the egg whites until soft peaks form. Gradually add the remaining sugar and continue beating until stiff peaks form.
4. Fold it all together – Gently fold the whipped egg whites into the chocolate mixture in batches, keeping it light and airy.
5. Chill and serve – Divide into serving dishes and refrigerate for at least 3 hours (or overnight) until set. Enjoy as is or topped with whipped cream and chocolate shavings!
