winosity.com

This will be your new favorite homemade chocolate cake, a yummy cake recipe with a gingery flavor that melts in your mouth. The perfect way to end a great family meal is with a delectable dessert that will surely captivate everyone's attention at the dining table.
This isn't just any chocolate cake. It's a sour milk chocolate cake with ginger and almonds. This should be a tangy, nutty, spicy and chocolatey cake, not at all your generic sweet chocolate cake. It's got a point of view, perhaps several. At the same time, it's not overly fussy or complicated to make.

1/2 tsp salt
2 egg whites
1 vanilla pod
1/2 cup almonds
1 tsp almond extract
1 oz crystallized ginger
