- Egg whites = stiff peak or if you like more moisture and creamy you can try to beat egg whites to firm peak. - always pre-heat the oven. -hot water bath is required to keep the cake moisture. - always put the cake in refrigerator. -it might not taste right after it's done, but IT WILL TASTE RIGHT when it's cold!! And refrigerate!!
1.Prepare the ingredients! In the original recipe, they didn't use sugar..... But I think it's too light.... So I add some sugar.
Also preheat the oven at 350 now!

You can also warm up the cream cheese and chocolate in microwave and beat it with egg beater machine if you r too lazy to use double boiler. No additional ingredients are needed when you beating up the egg whites!
