Directions:
Directions:
1. Preheat the oven to 350º F. Grease a 9-inch springform pan with butter, and dust with flour, tapping out any excess.

2. In a double boiler, melt the chocolate with the butter and stir occasionally until smooth. Remove from the heat.

3. In another bowl use an electric mixer to beat the egg yolks together with the sugar and vanilla until thick. In a third bowl whisk the egg whites with the salt until stiff, for about 2 minutes. Slowly and gently fold the chocolate into the yolks mixture, adding just a little chocolate at a time to keep the eggs from scrambling. Fold in the egg whites.'

4. Pour the batter into the springform pan, and bake in the center of the oven until spongy, for about 40 minutes. Remove from the oven, remove the springforn ring, and place the cake on a rack to cool completely.

5. When the cake is cool, prepare the Chocolate Ganache Icing.

6.To serve, spread the icing over the cake. Top with fresh raspberry sauce and whipped cream.
