Gluten free chocolate cake! Flourless too!

So, cake is what I decided to make today. I'm visiting my parents house later today and my mother LOVES chocolate, so I thought that I'd bring her some too. It tastes awesome and you don't need much to make it. A plus... no flour!

What you need (cake):
12 oz of semi-sweet chocolate chips
7 eggs (separated)
8 tbs butter
3/4 cup sugar
1 tsp pure vanilla extract.
You know the drill people.


What to do:
First, preheat your cooking machine to 350 degrees. (F)
Next melt 8oz. of the chocolate in a sauce pan, you may want to use a smaller pan than what I did (heh).
It's like magic or something...


Let it cool, next in a bowl add the butter and sugar together and mix well. I used a mixer.

Next, add melted chocolate, egg yolks, and vanilla extract.  When adding the egg yolks, put the whites in separate bowl. It should end up looking like this:
Then, clean or get another set of mixers or mixing spoon whisk (etc) just as long as it's clean and beat the egg whites until frothy.

BASK IN IT'S FROTHYNESS PEASANT. 
Add 1/3 of the egg whites to your batter, mix in well, then mix the rest in.
NOM GOOP NOM. DON'T EAT THIS YET, BAD! YOU GET SICK. K? NO EAT! AGREE? K!
After that just add to a greased cake pan. I suggest using one you can lift the bottom out of. Bake for 30 minutes.
NOM.
The cake will drop, let cool for 5 minutes, then get a butter knife and just trace along the edges of the cake. Flip on to plate.

 While you're letting it cool, lets make the glaze.

What you need!
1/4 cup melted butter
2 cups powdered sugar
3 tbs milk
1 tsp vanilla extract

What to do:
Melt the butter in your microwave for 30 seconds, then add all the other ingredients to the melted butter and just mix with a spoon.


After you glaze is done put it on your cake, then put the rest of your chocolate chips on top and enjoy! It tastes sooooooooo good.
