Pour the boiling water over the jelly and stir until dissolved. Set aside to cool then put in the fridge until it just begins to set.

Fold the semi-set jelly into the chocolate mixture together with the egg whites. Pour over the biscuit base and put the cake in the fridge to set. Sift cocoa powder just before serving.
