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.

1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Grease and line a 9-inch springform pan with parchment paper. Grease again.
2. Melt the chocolate and butter together in a double boiler or in a microwave-safe bowl, until the chocolate is almost completely melted. Remove from heat and stir until smooth and totally melted. Stir in the sugar, then let cool for a few minutes.
3. Add the eggs, one at a time, fully combining between each addition. After all the eggs are added, continue to stir until the batter becomes thick, glossy, and utterly gorgeous. Stir in the vanilla extract, almond extract, and any optional boozy addition you desire.
4. Pour the batter into the prepared pan. Bake 30-35 minutes, until the torte jiggles slightly in the middle but is not completely set. Begin checking at the 30-minute mark to ensure the torte does not overbake. Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then unmold. Dust with powdered sugar. Cut into wedges and serve alone or with whipped cream, berries, or anything else your heart desires.
