Steps to make Glazed Pound Chocolate Cake:

- Combine Self-Raising Flour, Almond Meal and Cocoa Powder in a bowl and set aside.
- Beat the softened Butter in a mixing bowl with a whisk until smooth. Add 1/4 cup Sugar and beat until creamy. Add Egg Yolks and mix well. Add melted Chocolate and mix well.
- Beat Egg Whites until soft peaks form. Gradually add 1/4 cup Caster Sugar and beat until combined well and glossy.
- Add the flour mixture to the chocolate mixture and mix well. Then gently fold in the Egg Whites mixture. DO NOT over-mix it.
- Pour the mixture into the loaf tin and bake for 40 minutes or until cooked through. Stand the cake in the tin for 5 minutes as it is quite soft, then turn onto a wire rack to cool.
