Set aside.Separate 4 eggs........whisk the egg whites until stiff peaks form; then, slowly add 1/4 tps. cream of tarter, and 1/4 c. sugar continuing to whisk till stiff peaks remain. Set aside.Combine the 4 yolks with 1 c. sugar, 1 tsp. vanilla extract, & 1/4 c. oil; add this mixture to the cocoa mixture. Sift 3/4 c. flour, 3/4 tsp. baking powder, and 1/2 tsp salt...... then stir into the cocoa mixture. Now, fold in the egg whites. Pour into the 2 pans, and bake for 18 - 20 minutes.After cooling, take cakes out of the pans & place on parchment paper. Crumble 1/2 c. fresh raspberries on each top of the cake......using 1 c. total. Set aside.In a small saucepan, melt 20 grams( 6 squares ) of Green & Black's 85% dark chocolate bar with 1/4 c. butter, 4 oz. fat free cream cheese, & 1/2 c. fat-free half & half ......careful not to burn the chocolate. Whisk in 1/2 c. powdered sugar till smooth. Place pan in freezer till set ( about 10 minutes ); then, pour over the top of one cake. Place the first cake over top of the 2nd cake & pour the remaining "icing" over the 2nd top.Cover the 2 layer cake with a dome & chill for at least 2 hours in the refrigerator. This cake serves 9 generous pieces.Note: You can cover this lovely cake in oodles of whipping cream for a gorgeous look, scattering fresh raspberries over top......... Fresh whipping cream is wonderful & I use it very seldom for special occassions......like our Christmas Eve party.Number of Servings: 9Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user VISUALLYRICS.
