My friend and I made these EXACTLY as directed. Once the egg whites were added to the chocolate mixture, it did not mix well. WHen baked, the center was runny chocolate and the top cake-like as in the picture, but the bottom 2/3 of the product was 'egg-like.' Should the chocolate cool before adding the egg whites? The bottom part really did not taste good.
