Critical Success Points

  • Melt chocolate without burning
  • Whisk eggs and sugars until pale and fluffy
  • Check doneness with a knife (center should be moist but not wet)

Safety Warnings

  • The oven will be 160°C – use oven mitts when inserting or removing the pan.
  • Alcohol evaporates during baking but the cake still contains trace rum; keep away from children.
