  • @countkostaki
    If you put about a ladle-full of the egg mixture into the coco powder mixture and mixed it thoroughly and then added that to the rest of the whipped egg you are much more likely to incorporate it more thoroughly and loose a lot less bubbles of air because it will not sink to the bottom of the bowl if you do it this way, because the mixture will not be as heavy

  • @fsdlor
    just tried it. came out amazing :) i didn't have cake flour tho so i used 1/2 a cup+ half a 1/4 of a cup of APS with 1 & 1/2 TBS of corn starch instead.
  • YOU ARE "THE GODDESS OF BAKING". SUCH PERFECTION AND SKILL. A PRIVILEGE TO WATCH YOU IN ACTION. THANK YOU,SO INSPIRING❤
  • I made it last night and it came out PERFECT!! Light, fluffy, moist and a good chocolate taste! I think my oven (that's vintage haha) was a bit hotter than it should, so it was done 13 min earlier - I noticed by the edge that the oven was too hot and STILL, it came out perfect! Great recipe, thank you for sharing!
