CHOCOLATE DECADENCE SPICE CAKE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 325°F. Wrap outside bottom and side of 9-inch springform pan with foil to prevent leaking. Lightly spray inside bottom and side of pan with cooking spray. In medium microwavable bowl, melt 16 oz of the chocolate and the butter uncovered on High 1 minute, then in 30-second increments, stirring until smooth. Stir in ground cinnamon and allspice. Cool slightly.
• In large bowl, beat eggs with electric mixer on high speed until foamy. Beat in granulated sugar and flour on low speed until blended. Gradually add chocolate mixture, beating on medium speed just until blended. Pour into pan.
