I had 2 kids who didn't like this, and they are my big eaters. But my gluten-free company loved it, so I'm bumping it up to 4 stars. I would say it is a very unique texture, not exactly what I imagined, but good nonetheless.

This was fabulous! I've tried lots of flourless cake recipes and this was by far the best I've tried. The egg white did take a while to peak, but eventually they were just right. I made a mistake and added 12 ounces of butter, instead of tablespoons (I got distracted), but the cake still turned out okay if a little on the heavy side. I made it for a special chocolate feast I was planned for the end of Lent at our church. It got rave reviews!!! Everyone wanted the recipe. I totally gave credit to you, Charlie, except for my little mistake. Even our friend who really doesn't like flourless choc. cake said it was pretty amazing. I made it the right way for another event the next week and it was perfect!!! More requests for the recipe. I added orange flavoring for a little exotic taste. Might try ameretto or raspberry next time! Thank you for the perfect fourless cake. My friends, family and I applaud you!!!!

YUMMY! I would definitely give it 5 stars, except I monkeyed with it, and cannot fairly judge it as written. I added 1/2 lb of chopped dried apricots, along with 1/2 jar apricot preserves. When it was cool, I glazed it with the rest of the preserves boiled with a little OJ. It was really delicious, but the texture of mine made for very messy slicing. Probably due to the apricot chunks, as it was chilled overnight. I wasn't sure exactly what constitutes "bittersweet" chocolate, but I used a mix of chocolate averaging 65% cocoa. The chocolate and sweetness were perfect! And, since I was making it for Passover, I dusted the sides with cocoa instead of flour, and this worked fine. Anyway, it was so good that I will surely make this again, but without chunks. Thanks for posting!

We just thought this was ok. we love bittersweet chocolate, but this needed sugar. It also came out a little dry for our taste. I know I didn't overbake it, because I was very careful. It wasn't awful, but wasn't the greatest. Probably wouldn't make it again.

This is a wonderful chocolate dessert - not too sweet, great flavour and texture. We really enjoyed it and it's easier to make than the directions imply!

This was the first flourless cake I had ever made, and it was a BIG hit! I even had some New York baker following me around asking questions about the recipe!!!
To save time, get all your ingredients out and measured before you start.
Oh, I also topped it with a fantastic brown sugar vanilla whip cream frosting- perfect combo!

My husband's favourite dessert used to be chocolate amoretto cheesecake, but since trying this recipe , he has changed his preferance. My children (12 & 14) hate cheesecake, but they cannot get enough of this cake. UMM, so chocolatey, and easy.
Thank you Catfish Charlie

I made this for my dad's birthday. He is allergic to wheat and doesn't get to eat many desserts. He loved it so much he at it for breakfast, lunch and dinner over the next week. He wants me to make another one right away. I was very simple to make as well.

So, I'm a pansy and don't usually do tough recipes, so I kind of cheated and skipped the whole two plates and a springform pan thing (I used a bundt pan) but it worked out pretty well. The cake tastes AMAZING. It's pretty much baked mousse (my husband hasn't tried it yet, but no doubt he'll flip...), like Catfish Charlie said. My only issue was that it took a lot longer than usual for me to get the egg whites to merengue consistency (could that be because of the brown sugar?), but that may just be me. Thanks! Definitely a keeper!

Not too easy to make, and I was grumbling a bit halfway through, but the end result was so totally worth it. And it was so rewarding to see my GI friend appreciate it so much. Five stars all the way, thanks!!!
