Ingredients
2 small or 1 large package of semi-sweet chocolate chips
4 eggs, separated
½ teaspoon of salt
1 teaspoon of vanilla
2 teaspoons of sugar
1 pint of whipping cream
1 cup chopped nuts; any kind will work, but walnuts are especially good
1 store-bought angel food cake
Beat the whipping cream and then put it aside. Break up the angel food cake into bite-sized pieces and likewise put it aside. On low heat, melt the chocolate chips. Beat the egg yolks and add them to the melted chocolate, then stir. Beat the egg whites until stiff, adding sugar. Add the egg whites into the chocolate and egg mixture, and fold them in. Stir in nuts, vanilla, and salt. Lastly, fold in the whipped cream. Using a casserole dish, layer the pieces of angel food cake with the chocolate mixture. Refrigerate. Contemplate. Obliterate (your diet).
