F. Butter bottom and sides of an 8-inch  springform pan. Line bottom
with parchment or waxed paper. Using  heavy-duty aluminum foil, wrap
foil under and up outside of spring  form pan to prevent leaks; set
aside. In 3-qt saucepan, combine  cut-up chocolate and butter. Cook
over low heat, stirring often,  until chocolate and butter melt and
mixture is smooth. Remove from  heat; cool 15 minutes. Meanwhile, with
whisk, beat eggs and sugar  over hot, but not boiling, water, until
eggs are lukewarm and foamy  and sugar is dissolved. Transfer to large
bowl. Beat egg mixture at  high speed until very thick and pale
yellow--about 8 minutes. Beat in  flour. Spoon about one fourth egg
mixture into cooled chocolate. Fold  chocolate back into remaining egg
mixture. Pour into prepared pan.  Place pan in deep roasting pan. Fill
with enough hot water to come  2/3rds of the way up the side of
springform pan. Bake 15 minutes  (mixture will still be soft in
center). Place cake on wire rack;  remove foil; carefully loosen edge
of cake with a sharp knife or  metal spatula. DO NOT remove side of
springform pan. Cool at room  temperature 1 hour. Refrigerate overnight
or up to 3 days.  On day of serving prepare glaze: In small saucepan,
combine heavy  cream and chocolate. Cook over low heat, stirring often,
until  chocolate melts and mixture is smooth. Chill until thick enough
to  spread but still pourable--20 minutes. Loosen cake and remove sides
of springform pan. Invert cake onto serving plate. Carefully remove
bottom of springform pan and parchment paper. Spread some of the  glaze
on side of cake. Pour remaining glaze on top, spreading with a  spatula
to form a smooth surface. Let cake stand at room temperature  about 30
minutes to set glaze before decorating with white candy  roses.
