200 gram butter, chopped

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

4 eggs, separated

Method

1.Preheat oven to 160°C. Lightly grease a 23cm springform pan and dust with plain flour, shaking out any excess.

2.Combine the chocolate, butter and cinnamon in a medium heat-resistant bowl. Stir over simmering water until melted and smooth. Set aside.

3.In a large bowl, using an electric mixer, beat egg-yolks and 1/2 cup sugar until thick and pale. Fold in the chocolate mixture.

4.Using an electric mixer, whisk the egg-whites in a separate, clean, large mixing bowl until soft peaks form. Gradually add the remaining caster sugar, beating until thick and glossy. Gently fold into the chocolate mixture. Pour into prepared pan.

5.Bake for 55-60 minutes or until a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean. Loosen the sides of the pan and cool for 5-10 minutes to allow the cake to shrink away from the pan.

6.Remove the sides of the pan completely and transfer to a wire rack to cool. Serve sprinkled with cocoa. Accompany with cream and berries.
