Chocolate is considered an essential ingredient by many chefs when it comes to desserts. Chef Dispirito says one key element to a good cake is to never use chocolate that is unevenly melted. He says to check by stirring until it is uniformly smooth.
The second essential factor to good chocolate cake is the baking. The moisture in the batter becomes steam, which rises and escapes through the foam. The heat also causes the air in these bubbles to expand and contributes to the rise.
