Hunt Ball Chocolate Pudding

1/2 lb plain (dark) chocolate
3 tbs sugar
3 eggs
8 trifle sponges or maybe 16 ladyfingers

Separate eggs.
Melt chocolate with 3 tbs water and cool.
Beat sugar and yolks in double saucepan, add chocolate, fold in
beaten whites. Lay sponges in a glass dish, cover with the mixture
and chill.


Q3: The beaten egg whites get folded in and then remain raw?

Weird recipe. Explain,. please!!


It's not that weird, really. It could use a little more detail, perhaps,
but it looks to me like a typical chocolate mousse recipe, with the
mousse mixture being placed over the sponges before chilling.

Most classic mousse recipes have raw eggs, AFAIK.
