Meredith request a flourless chocolate cake this year for her birthday so we gave it a try. There are many recipes available on the online and it was simple to make. 'Flourless' has become very popular in restaraurants because so many people are having problems with gluten or just want to say away from gluten. This dessert is good for 'no gluten' but takes 8 eggs so isn't good if you are watching your cholesterol. It was very tasty and I'd make it again but might look for a healthier recipe. It texture was kind of like a dense brownie and I liked it because it was very chocolaty but not extremely sweet. We topped it with greek yogurt and a little eldeberry syrup.2/17/12

Looks delicious! Actually eggs have gotten a bad rap. New and improved methods of testing have shown that the cholesterol level in the yolk is a lot less than previously believed. The nutritional benefit of eating the yolk far outweighs any health risk. We actually should be more concerned about the amount of sugar we consume since that is what raises our triglycerides. I will try to post some more info on my RD blog.
