   16       oz           Ghirardelli Bittersweet
                         - chocolate
   10       tb           Unsalted butter
    1       tb           Flour
    4                    Eggs

   Heat oven to 425~. Reserve 1/2 oz of chocolate for

   until mixture is lukewarm and sugar is dissolved. (Do

   (Center of cake will be soft.) Cool. Freeze cake
   overnight before removing from pan. Unmold. Cover with
   sweetened whipped cream, if desired. Decorate with
   shaved chocolate. Refrigerate until serving time.
   Serve with raspberry sauce, if desired.
