Description

Delicious baked treat for the whole family. The French chocolate cake is delicious on its own. You can cool it and dust it with powdered sugar, or prepare a creamy frosting or whipped cream. Each time you'll get a slightly different cake. To make a perfect French chocolate cake, you need to know a few secrets. For example, beaten egg whites will hold better if you add a pinch of salt. First, mix the beaten yolks into the batter and blend well, then gently fold in the beaten egg whites. All these steps should be done by hand, carefully using a spatula, so the batter doesn't deflate. Good luck—your cake is ready. Serve it at the table.
