Instructions
1. Line a 1-pound loaf pan with aluminum foil, pressing the creases out with your fingers as you go.
2. Place the caster sugar and water in heavy-based saucepan and heat over low heat, stirring constantly. Bring to a boil and cook for 2 to 3 minutes or until the mixture has the consistency of syrup. Set aside to cool for 7 to 8 minutes.
3. Beat the egg yolks into the chocolate mixture. Set aside to cool completely, approximately 25 to 30 minutes.
4. Lightly whip the cream in a small mixing bowl until it begins to form soft peaks. Fold the whipped cream into the chocolate mixture.
5. Beat the egg whites in a clean bowl until they are standing in soft peaks and fold them into the chocolate mixture. Pour the combined contents into the loaf pan and freeze for 8 hours or overnight.
6. Remove from the freezer and put the loaf pan in a large saucepan of warm water that comes up about half the height of the loaf pan. Remove from the water after 30 to 60 seconds and turn it out onto a serving platter. Cut it into slices and serve immediately.
