The key is that the egg whites must have nice stiff peaks and the tofu must be very smooth. Even after it is baked, it'll have a moist and rare texture, so I recommend to bake it until firm. The sweetness from the chocolate is enough for me, but you can add sugar to make it sweeter. For loaf pan: 18 x 8 x 6 cm [7 x 3 1/4 x 2 1/4 in]. Recipe by sotto

Steps

1

Heat chocolate and milk in the microwave to soften. Whisk egg whites until stiff peaks are formed. Preheat the oven to 340F/170C.
2

In a separate bowl, with the same hand mixer used in Step 1, combine and mix all other ingredients well (for a smoother consistency, strain everything first).
3

Take 1/3 of the beaten egg whites and add into the bowl in Step 2. Mix well. Then put everything back into the bowl from Step 1. Fold with a rubber spatula to combine.
4

Pour into a baking mold. Bake for 40 minutes at 340F/170C. While baking, cover with aluminum foil. It is done when you can insert a toothpick and it comes out clean in the middle. After it has cooled, cover with plastic wrap.
5

If you use 20 g of cocoa powder, the cake will be rich in bitter chocolate flavor. If you use 20 g of cornstarch, it will be a lighter cake. You can decide how to portion the 20 g depending on your preference. The version shown in the photos only uses cocoa powder. I like this version.
6

Milk is not necessary, but if you use it, you can enjoy the spongy, "raw" texture.
