EasterBake Chocolate Mousse Cake (GF)

I was going to make brownies, but it seemed a shame to waste the egg whites. Instead, I whipped the egg whites and folded them into the chocolate batter. The resulting cake is really light and moist, which makes a pleasant change for a #glutenfree cake! This can also be #dairyfree if you choose to decorate with something other than minieggs.

Steps
- 1
Pre-heat the oven to 180C and line a baking tin with parchment paper.
- 2
Break the chocolate into chunks and add to a microwave proof bowl. Add the oil and then heat on high, stirring every 30 seconds, until fully melted. Set this bowl to one side to cool.
- 3
In a large mixing bowl, whisk the egg yolks and sugar until fluffy. Pour the chocolate mixture into the egg yolks and whisk. Then whisk the flour into the chocolate batter.
- 4
In a separate mixing bowl, whisk the egg whites into stiff peaks. Then fold the egg whites into the chocolate batter. Stir with a metal spoon until the whites have been incorporated, but try not to knock the air out.
- 5
Pour the batter into the prepared baking tin. Bake in the centre of the oven for 40 minutes or until a skewer inserted into the cake comes out clean. Allow the cake to cool for ten minutes in the tin, then remove and allow to cool completely on a wire rack.
- 6
Break 100g of chocolate into chunks and place in a small microwave-proof bowl. Heat on high for approximately 2 minutes, stirring every 30 seconds until melted. Pour over the cake and decorate with mini eggs.
