I got this cake recipe off of allrecipes.com and it is AWESOME. I made it for Mindy's birthday and everybody loved it, so I am posting it here for those who ate it and those who need to!
Flourless Chocolate Cake
"A dense chocolate cake for those of us who can't tolerate wheat or gluten."
SERVINGS & SCALING
Original recipe yield: 1 -10 inch round cake (serves 16... this cake is RICH so you can't eat much)
INGREDIENTS
1/2 cup water
1/4 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup white sugar
18 (1 ounce) squares bittersweet chocolate ( I used almost two bags of Ghiardhelli bittersweet chocolate chips)
1 cup unsalted butter
6 eggs
DIRECTIONS
Preheat oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C). Grease one 10 inch round cake pan and set aside.
In a small saucepan over medium heat combine the water, salt and sugar. Stir until completely dissolved and set aside.
Either in the top half of a double boiler or in a microwave oven melt the bittersweet chocolate. Pour the chocolate into the bowl of an electric mixer.
Cut the butter into pieces and beat the butter into the chocolate, 1 piece at a time. Beat in the hot sugar-water. Slowly beat in the eggs, one at a time.
Pour the batter into the prepared pan. Have a pan larger than the cake pan ready, put the cake pan in the larger pan and fill
the pan with boiling water halfway up the sides of the cake pan.
Bake cake in the water bath at 300 degrees F (150 degrees C) for 45 minutes. The center will still look wet. Chill cake overnight in the pan. To unmold, dip the bottom of the cake pan in hot water for 10 seconds and invert onto a serving plate.
