Time 1h25m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

8 tablespoons (1 stick) unsalted butter, plus more for buttering the pan
8 ounces bittersweet chocolate (not chips), chopped
3/4 cup sugar
1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder, plus more for dusting the cake
1/4 teaspoon fine salt
6 large eggs, separated
Whipped cream, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F and butter the inside of a spring-form pan. Melt the chocolate and butter in a medium saucepan over medium-low heat; stirring frequently until smooth. Stir in the sugar, cocoa powder and salt until all of the lumps are gone. Remove from the heat and let cool for a few minutes.
  • Meanwhile, beat the egg whites in a large bowl with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until they form stiff peaks, 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Stir the egg yolks into the cooled chocolate mixture, then stir in about a quarter of the whipped egg whites. Scrape this lightened chocolate mixture into the remaining whipped egg whites and gently fold until mostly combined (it's ok if there are some streaks of egg white). Pour into the prepared pan and bake until the center of the cake no longer wiggles, 40 to 45 minutes. Let cool completely in the pan, on a wire rack (the cake will deflate slightly). Unlock the pan and dust the top of the cake with some cocoa powder. Cut into slices and serve with whipped cream.

Time 40m

Yield 8 , 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 cups pecans
1/3 cup cocoa
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
4 eggs
1/2 cup butter, melted
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/4 cup erythritol (optional)
1 cup artificial sweetener
1/2 cup water

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350°F Grease a 8 or 9" round pan or springform pan.
  • Process pecans in food processor - pulse until they are meal - but they won't get quite as small as corn meal.
  • Add the rest of the dry ingredients and pulse again.
  • (Note on erythritol: You can do this recipe with all artificial sweetener, but I've begun experimenting with partial erythritol, with success. I haven't tested all different combinations yet, though - it may be that more erythritol is even better.).
  • Add the wet ingredients and process until well-blended.
  • Pour into pan and bake. The exact time will vary with the pan. Start checking at about 25 minutes until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.

Yield 16

Number Of Ingredients 6

½ cup water
¼ teaspoon salt
¾ cup white sugar
18 (1 ounce) squares bittersweet chocolate
1 cup unsalted butter
6 eggs

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C). Grease one 10 inch round cake pan and set aside.
  • In a small saucepan over medium heat combine the water, salt and sugar. Stir until completely dissolved and set aside.
  • Either in the top half of a double boiler or in a microwave oven melt the bittersweet chocolate. Pour the chocolate into the bowl of an electric mixer.
  • Cut the butter into pieces and beat the butter into the chocolate, 1 piece at a time. Beat in the hot sugar-water. Slowly beat in the eggs, one at a time.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared pan. Have a pan larger than the cake pan ready, put the cake pan in the larger pan and fill the pan with boiling water halfway up the sides of the cake pan.
  • Bake cake in the water bath at 300 degrees F (150 degrees C) for 45 minutes. The center will still look wet. Chill cake overnight in the pan. To unmold, dip the bottom of the cake pan in hot water for 10 seconds and invert onto a serving plate.
