DINAH'S PASSOVER FLOURLESS CHOCOLATE CAKE
Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter a 9-inch-diameter spring-form pan with 2 3/4-inch high sides. Sprinkle matzah meal on the spring-form pan. Melt the 8 ounces bittersweet or semisweet chocolate, the 3/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, and the 2 ounces unsweetened chocolate in a heavy medium saucepan over medium-low heat, stirring constantly until smooth. Pour into large bowl and cool slightly. Add sugar, yolks, and almonds and whisk until smooth. Using electric mixer, beat whites in large bowl until stiff but not dry. Fold whites into batter in 2 additions. Pour batter into prepared pan. Bake until top is dry and begins to crack and tester inserted into center comes out with moist crumbs attached, about 40 minutes. Transfer cake to rack and cool 15 minutes. Press down gently on top of cake to even edges. Cool completely. For glaze, bring cream and 3 tablespoons of unsalted butter to simmer in heavy medium saucepan. Reduce heat, add both chocolates (4 ounces bittersweet or semisweet chocolate and 4 ounces milk chocolate), and stir until smooth. Let stand until cool but still pourable, about 1 hour. Invert cake onto 8-inch round tart pan bottom or cardboard round. Place cake on rack set over cookie sheet. Pour glaze over cake, spreading with spatula to coat top and sides. Refrigerate cake until glaze sets, about 1 hour. Let cake stand 2 hours at room temperature before serving.

gl@gmail.comNot a fan. The cake was dry and crumbly. It didn't taste like chocolate at all.

m62@yahoo.comThis cake was very dense and rich. It was a bit too sweet for me, but my husband loved it. I would make it again, but I would use less sugar.
