In a double boiler, melt the chocolate and butter until smooth. Whip the egg yolks and half the sugar until doubled in volume. Separately whip the egg whites and the other half of the sugar, until stiff. Separately whip the cream and vanilla into medium peaks.
Fold the chocolate into the egg yolks. Fold that into the egg whites. Fold that into the whipped cream
Chill for 30 minutes at least.
Slather over the nearest of-age hottie and pull down the window shades. *g*
