Preheat oven to 325º.
Melt chocolate and butter over low heat. In a large bowl, beat egg yolks and 3/4 c. sugar until light and fluffy, about 5 min. Gradually beat in warm chocolate mixture and vanilla.
In another large bowl, beat egg whites with cream of tartar until soft peaks form. Add remaining 1/4 c. sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time. Continue beating until stiff. Fold egg whites carefully into chocolate mixture.
Pour 3/4 of the batter into an ungreased springform pan. Cover remaining batter and refrigerate. Bake cake 35 minutes.

Spread Whipped Cream Frosting over tops and sides. Garnish with chocolate leaves, if desired.
Refrigerate several hours or overnight.
