Chocolate Cake Truffles

1. 1

   First, make the cake. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.

2. 2

   Melt the chocolate and butter together over very low heat.

3. 3

   While that's melting, whip the eggs in a stand mixer at high speed. When they start to become thick and pale, add the sugar slowly. Continue whipping on high until the mixture is thick, pale and ribbony.

4. 4

   Slowly pour the melted chocolate into the egg and sugar mixture while gently folding with a spatula. Be careful not to stir, only fold, because that will cause the batter to lose its air.

5. 5

   Pour batter into a cake pan that has been thoroughly buttered and floured (not sprayed). Bake for thirty-five minutes. Set aside.

6. 6

   In a small saucepot, melt the butter and chocolate together on the stove. Keep warm.

7. 7

   Once cake is cool, scoop out balls and roll each in the chocolate. Immediately douse with sprinkles. Continue for all.

8. 8

   Store cake balls in the freezer.
