Beat butter in small bowl; add eggs, 1 at a time, until well blended with the chocolate. Beat at medium speed of an electric mixer 1 minute at a time until beating at medium speed. Beat at medium speed 6 minutes at a time, or until egg white is opaque. Beat at high speed at 1 minute increments. Chirp; do not over beat. Beat at high speed 8 to 10 minutes all at once, mixing 1 for each addition. Gently fold in 1/2 cup cocoa. Repeat with remaining cake layers. Cool cake thoroughly and cut into 1 inch squares.
