FLOURLESS DARK CHOCOLATE CAKE

Provided by Scott Conant

Categories     dessert

Time 40m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

8 tablespoons (4 ounces) unsalted butter
1 cup (5 1/2 ounces) chopped 66% dark chocolate, such as Amedei
3 large eggs
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder, sifted
Orange gelato, for serving

Steps:

  • Heat a convection oven to 350 degrees F or a conventional oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Cover the bottoms of six 3-inch ring molds with aluminum foil, folding the excess foil up and around the outside of the ring molds to create a bottom. Alternatively, you can use 6 similar-size ramekins.
  • In a double boiler or in a heatproof bowl set over, but not touching, simmering water, melt the butter and chocolate together, stirring occasionally.
  • In a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, whisk the eggs and sugar on medium speed until doubled in volume, 10 to 15 minutes. Turn off the mixer, add the cocoa powder, and mix on low speed until blended. Using a large rubber spatula, fold in the melted butter and chocolate until just combined.
  • Fill the ring molds about three-quarters full. Bake until the cakes look set but are still a little wiggly in the center, 8 to 10 minutes.
  • Let the cakes cool, then remove from the molds. (The cakes may be made earlier in the day; let cool completely, then cover and keep at room temperature.)
  • To serve, reheat the cakes briefly in a warm oven and serve with orange gelato on the side.

FLOURLESS CHOCOLATE CAKE WITH DARK CHOCOLATE ICING



Flourless Chocolate Cake with Dark Chocolate Icing image

*Gluten-free recipe* I make this for my GF friends, and it's always a smash hit! It's an easy recipe, it tastes good, and has none of the grit that GF cakes usually have. I usually make mine in personal-sized springform pans, though the recipe says to use a 9-inch springform pan. Either one will work. The cake is very rich - a little goes a long way - so that's why I usually make personal sized ones when gifting this to people. Hope you like!

Categories     Cakes

Number Of Ingredients 8

12 ounce(s) bittersweet chocolate chips
1 cup(s) (2 sticks) plus 3 tablespoons butter, cut into chunks
1 1/4 cup(s) sugar
6 large eggs
1 cup(s) unsweetened cocoa powder
1 tablespoon(s) milk
1 tablespoon(s) honey
1/4 teaspoon(s) gluten-free vanilla extract (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375. Spray a 9-inch springform pan with non-stick cooking spray, then line the bottom with a circle of parchment paper. Spray the paper with cooking spray, too, then set the pan aside.
  • Place 8 oz of the chocolate and 1 cup of the butter in a medium saucepan over medium-low heat. Stirring often, melt chocolate with butter until completely blended. Remove from heat, and transfer to a large bowl.
  • Add sugar and mix well. Add eggs, one at a time, whisking well after each addition.
  • Sift cocoa into bowl and stir well blended. Pour batter into prepared pan.
  • Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until cake has risen and top has formed a thin crust. The cake should be firm in the center when done. Cool for 10 minutes, then invert onto a plate, removing sides of springform pan. Remove and discard parchment paper and set cake aside to cool completely.
  • Meanwhile, make chocolate glaze. Melt remaining 4 oz chocolate and 3 TB butter in a small saucepan over medium-low heat, stirring until smooth. Remove from heat, stir in milk, honey & vanilla. Set aside to cool completely.
  • When cake has cooled, pour glaze onto the center. Using a spatula or the back of a spoon, very gently smooth glaze along the top (and sides, if you'd like) of cake. Chill cake, uncovered, for 30-60 minutes before serving, to set the glaze and make the cake easier to slice. (I decorated it with a pink heart, made out of dusting sugar.)
