Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Butter a 9- by 2-inch round cake pan and line bottom with a round of wax paper. Butter paper and dust pan with flour, knocking out excess.
- Make batter:
- Melt chocolate and butter in a metal bowl set over a saucepan of simmering water, whisking until smooth.
- Cool slightly.
- Beat together eggs and sugar with an electric mixer until pale yellow, thick, and a ribbon forms when beaters are lifted, about 4 minutes with a standing mixer or 8 minutes with a handheld. Fold one fourth of egg mixture into chocolate mixture to lighten, then gently fold in remaining egg mixture.
- Pour batter into cake pan and rap pan sharply on counter to eliminate air bubbles. Put cake pan in a hot water bath and place in middle of oven. Bake 45 minutes (top will be set, but a tester will not come out clean).
- Remove cake from water bath and cool completely in pan on a rack. Run a thin knife around edge of cake and chill, covered, at least 4 hours and up to 12.
- Make sauce:
- Purée raspberries with sugar in a food processor or blender, then force through a fine sieve into a bowl. Chill until ready to serve.
- Remove cake from pan:
- Put cake pan directly on a burner at very low heat. Move pan around on burner to warm bottom, about 30 seconds, then shake pan to loosen cake. Invert cake onto a rack. Remove wax paper and invert cake onto a serving plate.
- Bring cake to room temperature. Serve with sauce and whipped cream.

[email protected]Meh. This chocolate decadence was just okay. It wasn't as rich and decadent as I was hoping for. The mousse filling was a bit grainy and the chocolate ganache was too thick. I wouldn't make this again.

[email protected]This chocolate decadence was a bit too rich for my taste. The mousse filling was very dense and the chocolate ganache was overly sweet. I think I would have enjoyed it more if the flavors were a bit more balanced.
