1. Place the butter in a small saucepan and over very low heat. Stir until almost melted, and then start adding the chocolate; continue stirring until almost all melted. Remove from heat and stir until chocolate is completely melted. If you don't follow these directions, you may end up with hard chocolate. Set aside. (This is one of the steps that makes this recipe easier--no double boiler. However, if you're not comfortable melting the butter and chocolate in a pot, feel free to do this step in a double boiler.)
2. In a medium bowl, beat egg whites until soft peaks form, then add 1/3 of the sugar, beating until stiff peaks form.
3. In a larger bowl, using the same beaters, beat the egg yolks and remaining sugar until very thick and pale yellow. This will only take a few minutes on a stand mixer, but much longer by hand. Add the melted butter and chocolate mixture, and beat on low speed, until evenly combined.
4. Add cocoa powder (or flour, if using) and continue beating at low speed. Clean the side of the bowl with a spatula occasionally.
