Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Preheat oven to 300 degrees.
  2. Remove the bottom of a 9 inch springform pan and cover with tin foil, wrapping foil around to the back (this will make it easier to remove cake from pan).
  3. Replace bottom of pan in springform.
  4. Grease and flour bottom and side of pan.
  5. In heavy 2-quart saucepan, combine semisweet and unsweetened chocolates and butter and melt over very low heat, stirring frequently until smooth.
  6. Pour into a large bowl and set aside.
  7. In another bowl with mixer at high speed beat egg yolks and sugar until very thick and lemon colored, about 5 minutes.
  8. Then add the egg yolk mixture to the chocolate mixture, stirring with rubber spatula until blended.
  9. In another bowl with clean beaters, beat a high speed the egg whites and cream of tartar until soft peaks form when beaters are lifted.
  10. With rubber spatula fold beaten egg whites into chocolate mixture, one third at a time, make sure you fold not stir.
  11. Pour batter into prepared pan, spread evenly.
  12. Bake for 35 minutes.
  13. DO NOT OVERBAKE Cake will firm up while standing and chilling, it is a truffle cake not a standard cake.
  14. Cool cake completely in pan on a cake rack.
