Ingredients

¾ cup white sugar
4 egg yolks
6 ounces dark chocolate
¾ stick butter
4 egg whites
1 pinch salt
1 tablespoon white sugar

Directions

Beat 3/4 cup sugar and egg yolks together in a bowl.
Melt chocolate in a microwave-safe glass or ceramic bowl in 15-second intervals, stirring after each interval, 1 to 3 minutes. Add butter gradually and beat until smooth. Beat into the egg yolk mixture.
Beat egg whites and salt together in another bowl until stiff peaks form. Sprinkle 1 tablespoon sugar over and beat for 2 minutes more. Stir egg whites slowly into chocolate bowl. Refrigerate for at least 6 hours; overnight is best.
