4. Mix the flour and cocoa powder and add them to the preparation.

5. Add the lukewarm milk little by little.

6. Whip the white ones of eggs in snow.

7. Add 2 spoonfuls of whites to the dough with a whisk, stirring briskly. Then add the rest gradually, gently, using a whip to make it easier. The preparation is very liquid so it is difficult to incorporate white snow. It will remain heavy lumps, it is normal.

8. Pour the dough in a mold to a lack of 26 cm in diameter. To facilitate demolding, I took a silicone mold. If you do not have one, consider putting baking paper in your mold before pouring the dough.
