CHOCOLATE BISCUIT CAKE



Chocolate Biscuit Cake image

Prince William broke with royal tradition by having a groom's cake at his wedding to Kate Middleton in 2011, requesting a classic British icebox cake (or fridge cake, as the Brits say). It's made out of McVitie's biscuits and lots of chocolate. The cake is also said to be a favorite of his grandmother Queen Elizabeth, who likes eating a slice with her afternoon tea.

Time 1h40m

Yield 10 to 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1/2 cup unsalted blanched hazelnuts
2 1/2 sticks unsalted butter, plus more for the pan
1 14-ounce package digestive biscuits, such as McVitie's, broken into 1/2-inch pieces (about 5 cups)
1/3 cup golden syrup (such as Lyle's)
1/4 teaspoon salt
6 ounces semisweet chocolate, chopped
3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/3 cup chocolate-hazelnut spread
4 ounces semisweet chocolate, chopped
1/2 cup heavy cream
1 tablespoon golden syrup (such as Lyle's)
Mini chocolate chips, for decorating

Steps:

  • Make the cake: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spread the hazelnuts on a rimmed baking sheet and toast in the oven, stirring occasionally, until golden, about 10 minutes. Let cool, then chop.
  • Butter the bottom and sides of an 8-inch springform pan; set aside. Toss the hazelnuts and cookies in a large bowl. Combine the butter, golden syrup and salt in a medium saucepan over medium heat and cook, stirring, until the butter is melted (do not boil). Remove from the heat and stir in the chocolate, cocoa powder and vanilla until smooth, then whisk in the chocolate-hazelnut spread.
  • Pour the chocolate mixture over the cookie mixture and stir to coat. Transfer to the prepared pan and press down evenly until tightly packed. Place a piece of plastic wrap directly onto the surface and refrigerate until set, at least 6 hours or overnight.
  • Make the ganache: Put the chocolate in a small bowl. Heat the heavy cream and golden syrup in a small saucepan over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the syrup dissolves and the mixture is just bubbling around the edges. Pour over the chocolate and let stand 5 minutes, then stir until smooth. Let sit at room temperature until thickened but still pourable, 30 minutes to 1 hour. (It should look like a soft pudding.)
  • Remove the cake from the refrigerator and let sit at room temperature, 45 minutes. Remove the springform ring and invert the cake onto a cake stand or serving plate; remove the bottom of the pan. Pour about one-third of the cooled ganache over the top of the cake and gently spread with a small offset spatula, allowing the excess to drip down the sides. Repeat with the remaining ganache in two more batches until the top and sides of the cake are covered. Sprinkle mini chocolate chips around the top edge of the cake.

EASY CHOCOLATE BISCUITS



Easy chocolate biscuits image

Try this basic recipe for fail-safe biscuits every time. Make a batch of chocolate chip cookies, or adapt it to include nuts, fruit or your favourite sweets

Provided by Barney Desmazery

Categories     Afternoon tea, Treat

Time 40m

Yield Makes 25 biscuits

Number Of Ingredients 6

250g butter, softened
350g light soft brown sugar
2 large eggs
350g self-raising flour
100g cocoa powder
200g chocolate chips or chopped chocolate chunks, or 400g for optional dipping (choose your favourite type)

Steps:

  • Beat the butter and sugar together with an optional pinch of sea salt in a bowl until light and fluffy, then beat in the eggs one at a time. Sift over the flour and cocoa powder and beat into the butter mix, then fold through the chocolate chips. The mix can be made up to 2 days ahead and chilled or frozen for a month, or used straight away.
  • To bake, heat oven to 190C/170C fan/gas 5. If the mix is at room temperature, place evenly spaced spoonfuls on parchment-lined baking sheets, allowing 2 tbsp for each cookie. If the mix is fridge cold, you can roll it into 40g balls before baking. The balls can be frozen and the biscuits baked from frozen, but they'll need a few minutes more. Bake for 12-15 mins until spread out and crusty around the outside. Leave to cool slightly and enjoy warm, or leave to cool completely and eat cold. The biscuits will keep in a tin for three days.
  • As an optional extra, the biscuits can be dipped in chocolate. To do this, melt your chosen type of chocolate in a bowl over a pan of simmering water or in the microwave. Leave to cool a little, then dip half of each biscuit in the chocolate and leave them on parchment-lined trays somewhere cool to set. Again, the dipped biscuits will keep for up to three days in a tin or lidded plastic container.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate: The better the chocolate you use, the better your biscuits will taste. Look for chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 70%.
  • Cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy: This will help to incorporate air into the mixture, making the biscuits light and airy.
  • Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing will make the biscuits tough. Mix the dough just until it comes together.
  • Chill the dough before baking: This will help to prevent the biscuits from spreading too much in the oven.
  • Bake the biscuits at a high temperature: This will help to create a crispy exterior and a soft and chewy interior.
  • Let the biscuits cool completely before serving: This will help to prevent them from crumbling.
