4 Atkins Endulge Chocolate Candy Bars, coarsely choppe
3 tbsp dried egg whites
1/2 cup warm water
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 1/2 cup heavy cream, divided

Instructions:

Melt 4 chocolate candy bars in a double boiler. Cool to room temperature.

While chocolate is cooling, whisk dried egg whites and water 2 minutes,

Comments: Dried egg whites, which are great for people who are
uncomfortable using raw eggs, were once available only to professional
kitchens. Now they can be found in the baking section of most grocery
stores.
