Deliciously Decadent Chocolate Tort

I am the worst baker ever, 99 out of every 100 cakes I make go straight to the garbage. Except for this baby...this tort is amazing and you can make it days ahead and just freeze it. 



250 grams butter
250 grams sugar
250 grams melted semi sweet chocolate
7 yolks
7 whites(whipped to form a peak)
3 spoons bread crumbs or flour



1.Before anything whip up the egg whites and leave on the side then if not youll have to clean th emixer in the middle and thats really annoying
2. Beat butter and sugar until light yellow and creamy
3. add yolks 1 at a time with mixer on
4. then add the melted chocolate and continue to mix until blended
5. then add the egg whites...slowly fold all in until smooth
6. split the batter in half refrigerate 1 half and add the bread crumbs to the other half.
7.Then place the half with the breadcrumbs/flour in a greased and floured round baking dish with removable sides and bake for about 30 minutes on 300. ( careful not to over cook)
8. Once its ready, let it cool and then top with the refrigerated half and cover with plastic wrap touching the mousse and place in fridge for a few hrs. ( can put it in the freezer too but will need to thaw it out for and hr before serving)
