3 large eggs

In a separate bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar, brown sugar, eggs, cornstarch, vanilla and salt. Whisk until fully combined then Gradually whisk in the chocolate mixture.

Bake for 50-60 minutes or until the center is set when gently shaken. Check the top at 35 minutes and place a piece of aluminum foil on top to prevent the crust from over browning, if needed.
