Instructions
Set rack to the middle level of the oven and preheat to 350 Degrees F.
Butter a 9 inch springform pan and line the bottom with a disk of parchment or wax paper and set aside.
In a large bowl beat butter and sugar until light and fluffy about 3-5 minutes.
Add egg yolks one at a time and beat until smooth. Beat in the chocolate.
In a medium clean dry bowl, beat egg white with the salt until soft peaks form. Stir about one third of the egg whites into the batter, then using a rubber spatula gently fold in the remaining egg whites.
Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top. Bake for about 35-40 minutes. The cake should be well risen and the center should be firm and elastic to the fingertip.
Cool the cake in the pan for 5 minutes, then invert onto a rack to cool completely. Slide the cake from the rack onto a platter.
For the Glaze
Place jam in a small sauce pan and stir over low heat until melted.
Pour glaze over the cake and allow to cool to room temperature.
