Guys and Dolls Dessert


Recipe by Helen Griffith
1 ½ pkgs. Chocolate chips (either semis sweet or milk chocolate)
2 ½ tea. Sugar
3 eggs, separated
1 pint whipping cream
2 angel food cakes (round shape—from market)

1. In a large bowl, break cake into bite-sized pieces and set aside.
2. Separate eggs (put yolks into one bowl and whites into another bowl). With an electric beater, beat the yolks until creamy and the whites until stiff.
3. Beat the whipping cream until peaks form and place in refrigerator until ready to use.
4. Melt chocolate chips and sugar in a double boiler over boiling water stirring constantly until smooth. Remove from heat and add beaten egg yolks. Fold in stiffly beaten egg whites and mix well.

6. Place half of the angel food pieces on the bottom of a 9x13 glass pan. Slowly pour enough chocolate mixture to cover cake. Repeat once again with cake pieces and chocolate mixture. **(You probably will have some chocolate mixture left over…refrigerate and use with vanilla ice cream for another treat).
7. Put glass pan in refrigerator for several hours or overnight prior to serving.
