1. Preheat oven to 325F (160). Grease 7-inch (18cm) round cake pan with butter, line the bottom with parchment paper. Grease the parchment as well. Set aside.

    if you want the nutritional value just use the nutritiinal panels on the back of your eggs (x6) and chocolate (per 100g x 3.15) add up then divide by number of serves for a value per serve.
