Categories     Dessert

Time 1h10m

Number Of Ingredients 10

300g stoned date , chopped
6 large eggs , separated
350g light muscovado sugar
200g wholemeal flour
2 tsp baking powder
100g cocoa
5 tbsp custard powder
5 tbsp light muscovado sugar
50g cocoa powder
1.2l skimmed milk

Steps:

  • Cover the dates with boiling water and set aside to soften for 30 mins.
  • Heat oven to 160C/140C fan/gas 3 and line a 20 x 30cm baking tin with baking parchment. Drain the dates, reserving the liquid, then whizz the dates to a purée with 100ml of the soaking liquid.
  • Beat the egg whites in a large bowl with an electric whisk until stiff peaks hold on the end of your whisk. Add half the sugar and beat until thick and glossy.
  • In another bowl, beat the yolks and remaining sugar until pale. Whisk in the mashed date mixture, then fold into the egg white mixture until well combined. Mix the flour, baking powder and cocoa with a pinch of salt. Sprinkle over the wet mixture and very gently fold in until well combined. Gently scrape into the tin and spread to the edges. Bake for 35-40 mins until a skewer poked in comes out clean.
  • Meanwhile, mix the custard powder, sugar and cocoa together in a saucepan. Stir in dribbles of milk until you get a smooth paste. Gradually add more milk until it's all incorporated with no lumps. Put over a medium heat and warm, stirring constantly, until thick and just bubbling.
  • Cut the warm cake into slabs and pour over the hot chocolate custard to serve.

Steamed Chocolate Sponge Pudding image

Baked uncovered in the oven with a water bath to keep it moist, this dessert's creamy texture is reminiscent of a rich custard. Beaten egg whites make it lighter and airier than other steamed puddings.

CHOCOLATE SPONGE CAKE

Brushing the cake layers with a simple syrup before frosting keeps the cake from crumbling and drying out.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Dessert & Treats Recipes     Cake Recipes

Time 2h55m

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 1/3 cups sugar, divided
Unsalted butter, for pans
8 large eggs
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/2 cup Dutch process cocoa
1/2 cup cake flour
Milk Chocolate Frosting

Steps:

  • In a saucepan, combine 1/3 cup each sugar and water over medium-high heat and cook, stirring, until sugar dissolves. Remove simple syrup from heat; let cool.
  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Butter two 8-by-2-inch round cake pans. Line bottoms with parchment rounds; butter parchment. In the bowl of a standing mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, combine eggs and remaining 1 cup sugar. Whisk on medium speed until quadrupled in volume and mixture holds a 3-second ribbon, about 10 minutes. Whisk in vanilla.
  • In a bowl, combine cocoa and flour. Sift over egg mixture; using a large rubber spatula, carefully fold into egg mixture, cutting through center and lifting gently over sides. Divide batter among prepared pans. Bake until cake pulls away from sides of pan and is springy to touch, 15 to 17 minutes. Remove from oven. Run a small knife around sides of pan. Invert onto rack; remove parchment, and re-invert onto rack to cool completely.
  • Using a serrated knife, trim tops of cakes horizontally to level surface. Halve each cake horizontally to form 2 layers. Transfer 1 layer to a serving platter; generously brush with simple syrup and spread 3/4 cup frosting on top. Set another cake layer on top, and repeat process with remaining simple syrup, frosting, and cake layers. Frost top and sides of cake in a swirling motion. Refrigerate until set, about 1 hour.

Tips for Making the Best Chocolate Sponge with Hot Chocolate Custard:

  • Use high-quality chocolate: The quality of the chocolate you use will greatly impact the taste of your sponge and custard. Opt for a dark chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 70%.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will result in a dense, chewy sponge. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Use a water bath for the custard: A water bath will help to ensure that the custard cooks evenly and prevents it from curdling.
  • Don't boil the custard: The custard should be cooked over low heat until it thickens. Boiling the custard will cause it to curdle.
  • Chill the custard before serving: Chilling the custard will help it to set and develop its flavor.

Conclusion:

This chocolate sponge with hot chocolate custard is a decadent and delicious dessert that is perfect for any occasion. The sponge is light and fluffy, while the custard is rich and creamy. The combination of chocolate and hot chocolate custard is simply irresistible. With careful preparation and attention to detail, you can create a dessert that will wow your friends and family.
