Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees and line bottom of a 9 in springform pan with parchment paper. Butter both sides of pan. Melt chocolate and butter together, set aside to cool. With electric mixer, beat eggs and sugar together until about tripled in volume and mousse-like. Mix almond meal with cocoa powder. Gently fold into egg mixture, followed by the slightly cooled chocolate mixture. Fold in lime zest and juice. Pour and scrape into prepared an and bake 40-45 minutes. The cake will be just firm on top but still have a bit of wobble underneath.

Cool on wire rack in pan. Once slightly cool, drape a clean kitchen towel over cake to stop it from getting too crusty. When completely cool, loosen from edges, untold and dust with confectioners sugar. Serve with Margarita Cream (recipe to follow)
