Chocolate cake

This recipe is very old, I've seen it made by Benedetta Parodi and I've cooked it really hundreds of times for birthdays, or for evenings at friends' houses. It is certainly not a very light dessert, but the special feature is that it is very nice to serve in squares just as if it were a chocolate, and the texture really resembles it.

Ingredients:

• 200 g gluten-free dark chocolate

• 200 g butter

• 200 g sugar

• 4 eggs

• 4 tablespoons gluten-free cake mix

• salt

• gluten-free powdered sugar

Melt chocolate with butter and sugar.

Allow to cool.

Beat egg whites until stiff.

Turn on static oven to 170°.

In a bowl, lightly beat egg whites with a pinch of salt and add melted chocolate with butter and sugar.

Add the egg whites, stirring from the bottom up, and last, the flour.

Bake for 30 minutes.

Let cool and top with powdered sugar.
