Fallen chocolate soufflé cake from Bittersweet: Recipes and Tales from a Life in Chocolate by Alice Medrich

Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

    If you want a pretty looking cake, this is not it, but it sure is delicious and relatively low in fat. No butter or oil was used, only the fats from the chocolate, cocoa powder, almonds and the egg yolk. I did not even attempt to invert the cake onto a plate, just served it from the base of the spring-form pan.

    Medrich calls it a "slimmer reincarnation" of her Queen of Sheba, but it is just as delicious. The torte sinks like a soufflé while cooling and thus is not as nice to look at as the Queen of Sheba, but this is actually the only difference.
