Sunday Night Supper, continued

I have posted the appetizer and salad recipes earlier. For our main course we had Roman Style Meatballs and Gnocchi alla Romana. Here is a picture of the meatballs:


The recipe for the meatballs and the gnocchi can be found on the Williams Sonoma website.

For dessert we had Flourless Chocolate Cake with vanilla ice cream.

7 oz. really good (45-50% cocoa) semisweet chocolate (I used Ghiradelli)
3/4 cup butter
1 cup sugar, divided
4 eggs, separated
Powdered sugar

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Melt chocolate and butter in a double boiler, remove from heat once melted. Stir together 1/2 cup sugar and the four egg yolks; add to melted chocolate mixture. Using an electric mixer, beat the egg whites, slowly add remaining 1/2 cup sugar and beat until stiff peaks form. Fold mixture into chocolate mixture; pour into greased 9-inch cake pan. Bake 40 minutes or until knife inserted in center comes out with just a few crumbs on it. Cool 30 minutes before removing from pan. Dust with powdered sugar.
