Chocolate & Grand Marnier Cake image

I was running out of ideas on what to make for a friend for her upcoming 50th so I made this cake and she was ecstatic. I knew that after dinner she enjoyed a glass of milk with an ounce of Grand Marnier mixed in, so what better way to surprise her than with this decadent birthday cake? -Lorraine Caland, Shuniah, Ontarior

Provided by Redsie

Categories     Dessert

Time 1h20m

Yield 1 cake, 16 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 18

1/2 cup bittersweet chocolate, chopped into 1/4 inch pieces
2 -3 tablespoons Grand Marnier
1 1/2 teaspoons cake flour
3 large eggs
1 cup sour cream
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla
2 1/2 cups sifted cake flour
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup unblanched sliced almonds, toasted and finely ground
1 tablespoon unblanched sliced almonds, toasted and finely ground
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
3/4 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons grated orange zest
1 cup unsalted butter, softened
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 cup fresh orange juice
1/3 cup Grand Marnier

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • In a small bowl, toss the chocolate chips and a few spoons of Grand Marnier until chips are moistened and shiny. Add the 1 ½ teaspoon flour and toss until evenly coated.
  • In a medium bowl, lightly combine the eggs, ¼ cup sour cream, and vanilla.
  • In a large mixing bowl combine the dry ingredients and orange zest and mix on low speed a moment to blend. Add the butter and remaining ¾ cup sour cream. Mix on low speed until the dry ingredients are moistened. Increase to medium high speed for 1 ½ minutes to aerate and develop structure. Scrape down sides. Gradually add egg mixture in 3 batches, beating for 20 seconds after each addition to incorporate the ingredients. Scrape down the sides, and fold in the chocolate chips.
  • Scrape the batter into a well buttered bundt pan. Bake 55 to 65 minutes or until the cake tests done with a toothpick.
  • Shortly before the cake is done, prepare the syrup: Heat the sugar, orange juice, and Grand Marnier until the sugar is dissolved. DO NOT BOIL. As soon as the cake comes out of the oven, place the pan on a rack, poke the top all over with a wire tester, and brush on ½ the syrup. Cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then invert onto a serving plate. Brush with the remaining syrup and cool completely before wrapping airtight.
  • This cake can be made several days ahead and refrigerated, wrapped well. I like to glaze it with a Chocolate Cream Ganache before serving.
