I took this recipe from a Montignac book I got from the library. I promptly returned the book without copying the recipe. d'ooohhhhhhh. You can find a good enough reproduction here though. What I basically did was halve the recipe and make it in individual pyrex bowls, for a more manageable portion size. It's really pretty tasty and I am all for recipes that have only 2 ingredients and really rely on the quality.
The key is of course the chocolate. This was 72% tastiness from Trader Joe's. When you can get 500 grams of it there (or Fresh & Easy) for $3.98, why eat anything else? :D
Melted over a double boiler on the stovetop:
I don't have anything of the eggs.... and I'm not sure why. Sorry about that LOL
So this is what they looked like, right before going into the oven (at a high heat for a short time)
And this is right after coming out of the oven - i mean right after - they are still puffy. That went down as they cooled.
After refrigerating for a few hours, I turned it out onto a plate and this is what it looks like. A fluffy yet dense and rich cakelike dessert delicacy.
Melt some chocolate for a ganache and spread it on top and bam, delicious low-glycemic dessert with no added sugar besides what's in the dark chocolate. And man, really tasty.

Oh, these look so good. I'd like to make these for my sister's birthday. Did you prep the pyrex dishes with anything before you poured the cake mix into them?
Nope, I didn't, but I imagine that you could. The original recipe calls for a springform pan, I imagine you could use a normal cake pan perhaps lined with parchment. Good luck!
What all is in this? I didn't see ingredients anywhere. Just melted chocolate and eggs? Help! I'm soooo hungry for chocolate cake. Thanks
I linked the recipe in the post. You can find it here: http://unassumingfoodie.blogspot.com/2008/05/best-chocolate-cake-for-lovers-of-real.html
