Notes

Expert Tips
  • Egg Separation: When parting the egg yolk from the egg white, ensure there is no trace of yolk left in the white. Any remnant yolk can hinder the egg white from whipping up properly.
  • Gentle Folding: Carefully fold the whipped egg white into the egg yolk and chocolate mixture. Avoid stirring too forcefully, as it can deflate the whipped whites, affecting the cake's texture.
