Two Ingredient Cloud Cake

🎂 Two-Ingredient Cloud Cake Recipe

🧾 Ingredients:

- 1. Eggs – 4 large (separated into yolks and whites)
  2. White chocolate – 120g (about 4.25 oz or one standard baking bar)

🔪 Instructions:

1. Preheat Oven

- - Preheat your oven to 170°C (340°F).
  - Line a small round cake pan (6 to 7-inch) with parchment paper on the bottom and sides.

2. Melt the Chocolate

- - Break the white chocolate into small pieces.
  - Melt it in a heatproof bowl over a pot of simmering water (double boiler) or microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring in between, until smooth.
  - Let it cool slightly.

3. Separate Eggs

- - Carefully separate the egg whites and yolks.
  - Make sure no yolk gets into the whites.

4. Whip the Egg Whites

- - In a clean, grease-free bowl, beat the egg whites using a hand mixer until stiff peaks form (about 3–5 minutes).

5. Combine Yolks with Chocolate

- - Stir the egg yolks into the slightly cooled melted white chocolate until smooth.

6. Fold in Egg Whites

- - Gently fold the egg whites into the chocolate-yolk mixture in three batches.
  - Use a spatula and go slowly to keep the mixture light and airy.

7. Bake

- - Pour the batter into the prepared pan.
  - Tap the pan lightly to release any large air bubbles.
  - Bake for 15 minutes at 170°C (340°F), then reduce the heat to 160°C (320°F) and bake for another 15 minutes.
  - Turn off the oven and let the cake sit inside for 15 minutes with the door slightly open.

8. Cool & Serve

- - Let the cake cool completely in the pan.
  - Once cool, carefully remove from the pan.
  - Dust with powdered sugar or serve with fresh berries if desired (optional, but not counted as ingredients!).

🍰 Tips:

- The texture is like a cross between a soufflé and a cheesecake — super fluffy and light.
- For best results, use room temperature eggs.
- If you want more flavor, you can add a splash of vanilla or citrus zest, but that would be a third ingredient 😉
