If you're wondering what to make for your family for Valentine's Day, serve this sharable gateau au chocolat All you need to do is to simply combine the ingredients in order. It's an easy recipe but'll taste the rich and dense cream cheese.

If the cream cheese is too hard, microwave for a bit. You don't need to use baking chocolate, normal chocolate is fine! If so, the taste may not be so pronounced, and have a mild flavor. Use whatever chocolate you like. Recipe by Kraftcheese

Fold the egg whites into the batter in 2-3 batches with a rubber spatula, and pour into the parchment paper lined cake pan.

Even out the surface and bake in a 170℃ preheated oven for about 40 minutes.
