Sa Chocolate Sponge

Yield: 1 servings

Ingredients and directions for this recipe

1/4 c Cream
120 g Dark chocolate; chopped
1/4 ts Bicarbonate soda
8 Eggs
250 g Castor sugar
250 g Plain flour; sifted
100 g Butter; just melted

Preheat oven to 180?C/350?F.

Place cream in a saucepan and bring to the boil. Reduce heat, stir in the
chocolate and when it has just melted, remove from heat and stir in bicarb
of soda. Allow to cool.

Place eggs in a large bowl. Add sugar and, using an electric beat, beat
until the mixture forms a tick ribbon. This takes about 10 minutes. To
incorporate most of the air, make large movements with the beater.

Gently beat in the melted chocolate until just mixed in.

Add sifted flour all at once and, using a rubber spatula, fold in gently
but quickly. When you see the last of the flour has disappeared,
incorporate the melted butter gently but quickly.

Pour mixture into prepared tin and smooth top with spatula. Bake in
preheated oven for 30 - 40 minutes.

When the sponge is cooked, remove it from the oven and leave to cool for a
few minutes before gently unmoulding onto a wire rack.
