Stir eggs into chocolate mixture until well blended. Pour batter into prepared pan. Place springform pan in large roasting pan; add enough water to come 1/4-inch up side of springform pan. Bake in a preheated 350 F oven until edge is set but the center is still soft (about 30-35 minutes). Remove springform pan from roasting pan; remove foil. Cool cake completely on wire rack. Wrap with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.
