If you would rather use the frozen whipped topping (thawed) You can, and you can get away with using vanilla flavoring also.Well, enjoy the recipe. I'm in the middle of moving, so I am making this short and sweet.Until later.

Servings: 10
2 Oz. Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips
3 Oz. Unsweetened Baking Chocolate
5 Egg Yolks
4 Egg Whites
¾ Cup Sugar
½ Tsp. Vanilla Extract
1½ Cups Whipping Cream, Whipped
1 Tbls. Rum Flavoring

In a double boiler of hot water, not boiling, melt chocolate chips and baking chocolate. Remove from heat and allow to cool. In a large bowl beat egg yolks with ½ cup of the sugar until light and thick. Add the chocolate, vanilla, and the rum flavoring. In a medium bowl beat the egg whites until soft peaks form. Gradually add the remaining ¼ cup of sugar and beat until firm peaks form. Add and beat in ¼ cup of the meringue in the chocolate mixture. Fold in the remaining meringue and the whipping cream. Serve in small individual serving bowls. Enjoy!
