Provided by Food Network

Categories     dessert

Time 1h5m

Yield 10 to 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

16 tablespoons (2 sticks) unsalted butter
8 ounces semisweet chocolate
7 egg yolks
1/2 cup sugar
1 1/2 ounces coffee liqueur (recommended: Kahlua)
Whites from 5 eggs
1 cup sliced almonds, toasted
Cajeta, recipe follows
Strawberry-lime salsa, recipe follows
1/2 cup water
1 cup sugar
Approximately 1/2 cup heavy cream
2 tablespoons butter
1 1/2 pints strawberries
2 key limes or 1 large lime, juiced
2 tablespoons sugar
1 1/2 tablespoons chiffonade of mint

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees and grease a 9-inch round pie pan. Line pan with greased parchment or waxed paper. In the top of a double boiler, melt the butter and chocolate and stir until smooth. Whip the egg yolks and the sugar until fluffy and pale in color. Fold butter and chocolate mixture into the egg yolk and sugar mixture, adding the coffee liqueur. Whip the egg whites to soft peaks and gently fold into the chocolate mixture. Pour into the pie pan and bake for 25 to 35 minutes then allow to cool completely.
  • Cajeta: In a medium saucepan, bring water and sugar to a boil, do not stir. Remove from heat when the sugar is amber in color and add enough cream to thin the caramel to a fairly liquid consistency. Stir in butter. To test consistency, dip a spoon into the caramel mixture and allow to cool. If the "cajeta" is gooey but holds its shape, it's ready; if it hardens too much, add a little more cream and test again.
  • Strawberry-Lime Salsa: In a blender, puree half the strawberries with the lime juice and the sugar. Strain and reserve. Cut the remainder of the strawberries in quarters and mix with the puree. Add chiffonade of mint.
  • When the cajeta has cooled a little, but is still warm, pour over cake on top of a wire rack to catch the drippings. Using your hand, pat almonds all around the sides of the cake. Refrigerate for 2 hours and serve chilled with salsa.

FLOURLESS CHOCOLATE CAKE



Flourless Chocolate Cake image

This cake is beloved throughout France and long ago won the heart of Julia Child, who called her version "Le Glorieux" (the glorious one). The original dessert wasn't entirely flourless: When McCall's magazine published a recipe by French cookbook writer Countess Mapie de Toulouse-Lautrec in 1959, the cake's dense texture led some to mistakenly call it "flourless," despite a small amount of flour. As the recipe evolved, flour was eventually left out completely.

Time 2h

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 sticks unsalted butter, plus more for the pan
Unsweetened cocoa powder, for dusting
16 ounces extra-bittersweet chocolate (70% cacao), finely chopped
8 large eggs, at room temperature
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons orange liqueur (such as Grand Marnier; optional)
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Confectioners' sugar, for dusting

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter the bottom and sides of a 9-inch springform pan (preferably light metal); dust with cocoa powder and tap out the excess. Combine the butter and chocolate in a medium heatproof bowl set over a pan of simmering water (do not let the bowl touch the water); stir until melted and smooth. Remove the bowl from the pan and let cool to room temperature.
  • Meanwhile, beat the eggs, granulated sugar and salt in a large bowl with a mixer on medium-high speed until thickened and very airy, 4 to 6 minutes. Beat in the orange liqueur and vanilla. Gently fold in the melted chocolate mixture with a rubber spatula in three additions until just combined (do not overmix).
  • Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake until the edges are set and the center puffs but is slightly jiggly, 30 to 40 minutes. (The cake will continue to set as it cools.) Transfer to a rack and let cool completely (the center may sink a bit). Remove the springform ring. Dust the cake with cocoa powder and confectioners' sugar just before serving.

EASY FLOURLESS CHOCOLATE CAKE



Easy Flourless Chocolate Cake image

This will impress any guests you entertain and you don't have to tell them how easy it was! Serve with chocolate ganache and raspberry sauce. I used recipes I found here on Allrecipes.com for chocolate ganache (by INGRIDEVOGEL) and raspberry sauce (by The_Tattooed_Chef). The raspberry sauce complements all that chocolate and makes the cake moist. Both of these recipes are easy, simple, and exceptional as well.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate. The quality of the chocolate you use will directly impact the flavor of your cake. Use a chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 70%.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing the batter will result in a tough, dense cake. Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the cake in a water bath. Baking the cake in a water bath helps to create a moist, fudgy texture.
  • Let the cake cool completely before frosting it. This will help to prevent the frosting from melting.
  • Serve the cake with your favorite toppings. Some popular toppings for flourless chocolate cake include whipped cream, ice cream, and fresh berries.
