Calling all chocoholics--this is your dessert! Add raspberry sauce and you're in heaven! This is definitely not for the calorie counters, but everyone needs an indulgence now and then! Originally from a local restaurant in Houston called Ouisie's Table--everything I've ever ordered there has been WONDERFUL. To keep the whipped cream stabilized, I always add about 1/2 t. unflavored gelatin to the cream before I whip it. Prep time does not include "setting up" time.

- Place springform pan in a larger pan.
- In a medium saucepan over high heat, bring water and 2/3 cup sugar to a boil; remove from heat.
- Add chocolate and butter; stir to melt (consistency should be smooth; add a little melted butter if necessary).

- Gently fold chocolate mixture into eggs.
- Spoon batter into prepared pan.
- Pour very hot water into larger pan to come halfway up side of springform pan.

- Cut around the edges; remove sides of pan.
- Invert onto a serving plate.
- Gently remove pan bottom and parchment.
- With electric mixer, whip cream and 2 tablespoons sugar to a thick, frosting-like consistency; spread or pipe on cake.

- Turn down temperature; cook 20 minutes over very low heat.
- Purée in blender and strain mixture through a fine sieve to remove seeds, if desired.
