I've been making this special cake for fifty years. It is delicious! It's my family's request for birthday and other special occasions.
I use four egg whites. I did not use the raw egg yolk for the icing...every one is scared of that. So I add some butter. Place the frosted cake in the refrigerator for an hour so it's firmer.Then pour the bitter chocolate over the white frosting. I used to write the birthday person name on the top.
This goes well with Italian dinner party.
