+directions: 'Coat a 9” round pan with melted butter, applying it with a pastry brush;
+ set aside. Preheat oven to 375F. Beat eggs with a whisk then add sugar gradually. Place
+ the mixing bowl over low heat, moving the bowl to heat the contents evenly, being
+ very careful not to cook the mixture. So, when this is warm to the touch, place
+ the bowl onto the mixer with the whip attachment. Whip it at high speed until
+ the eggs triple in volume, about 15 min. Take the bowl off the mixer and slowly
+ pour in the sifted flour while gently folding with a wooden spoon. This is best
+ done with the aid of another person, who would be sprinkling the flour during
+ the folding (do in thirds). Add the almond extract. Pour the batter into the
+ pan and place it in the center of the oven at 375F. When the top is slightly
+ brown and it springs back slightly when touched, it’s done. This will be about
+ 20-24 min. Wait 10 min. Remove from pan and cool on wire rack for 15 min. Slice
+ in half or thirds horizontally. Freeze for up to 2 months.

+ Chocolate Raspberry Mousse:
+
+ 16 oz. Semi-sweet Chocolate, chopped
+
+ 16 oz. heavy cream
+
+ 4 large eggs, separated
+
+ 2 large # eggs
+
+ 2 T. Raspberry Liqueur
+
+
+ Place the chocolate over low simmering heat in a double boiler until melted, stirring
+ occasionally. Set aside when melted. In a mixing bowl, whip the cream until
+ firm; set aside. In an oil free, clean mixing bowl whip the egg whites until
+ firm; set aside. Place the chocolate in a large bowl and with a whisk, mix the
+ egg yolks and the whole eggs into the chocolate until well combined. Alternately
+ fold the whipped cream and the egg whites into the chocolate mixture until well
+ combined. Add the liqueur and blend well.
+
+
+ Using a greased 9” cheesecake pan with removable sides, put a layer of genoise
+ cake in the bottom. Place ladyfingers on the inside sides of the pan. Pour the
+ mousse in the center and smooth out. Let firm up in the refrigerator. Can decorate
+ with whipped cream cheese frosting (½ batch is plenty).'
