  1. Preheat the oven to gas 5, 190°C, 170°C fan. Warm a baking sheet in the oven.

  4. Put 150g (5oz) dark chocolate, broken into pieces, in a bowl over simmering water. Once it has melted, stir in 75g (3oz) unsalted butter. Set aside.

  6. Whisk the egg whites until they form soft peaks. Gently fold a spoonful into the chocolate mixture. Repeat until all the egg white is folded in.
