Back in Florida; which means it's time to grill. It's particularly fun to grill when I'm hanging with my parents because I'm the only one that will use the beautiful grill outside, and I always find something to grill. My favorite so far has been the awesome oyster bake we had. 50 oysters for $12 (I never thought eating that many oysters could be difficult, and it wasn't). Good times.

Since I'm not sticking around too long this time and I don't want a big clean up I thought it would be nice to do something clean and simple (nothing kills the desire to make chicken wings than the way it leaves the grill, my nice beautiful clean sparkly grill). So, steaks.

Flourless Chocolate Cloud Cake

12 ounces semisweet or bittersweet chocolate, chopped
12 tablespoons (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter
1/4 teaspoon fine salt
6 large eggs
3 egg whites, 1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
1 1/2 cups granulated sugar Confectioners' sugar and/or cocoa powder, for dusting

Yesterday, we celebrated Anne's birthday, which is coming up this friday. As is the tradition for her birthday (done 3/4 times during medical school), the cake had to be personally made. Which is nice in theory (especially since usually there are 3 of us making the cake); but this year it fell onto me to make the cake. So I thought it would be a nice time to try out a flourless chocolate cake.
