Este es el pastel de chocolate perfecto para servir como postre, para una merienda exquisita o cuando te apetezca chocolate.
Ingredientes · Raciones 8
- 1/2 cup cocoa powder
- 1 1/2 cups self-raising flour
- 1 tablespoon baking soda
- 1/2 cup caster sugar
- 9 oz good quality chocolate (broken into small pieces)
- 3 oz butter
- 3 eggs (free-range or organic)
- 2/3 cup condensed milk
- 1 cup plain yogurt
- 1/2 punnet each of strawberries, blueberries, and raspberries ((fresh or frozen))
- 3 tsp icing sugar (sifted)
- good quality vanilla bean ice cream (to serve)
- fresh raspberries ((to serve, optional))
Método · 40 min
- Preheat the oven to 170°C (330°F).
- Grease 8 soufflé or dariole molds. This recipe can also be made as a 26 cm (10 inch) round fudge cake.
- Into a large bowl, sift all the dry ingredients. Mix to combine.
- In a double saucepan or a bowl placed over a saucepan of simmering water, gently melt the chocolate and butter. Stir until combined and glossy. Cool slightly (5 to 10 minutes).
- Add eggs, condensed milk and yoghurt to the chocolate mixture. Stir well to combine.
- Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients. Gradually pour in the chocolate mixture, stirring until just combined.
- Pour into the prepared moulds and cook for 20 minutes until the top of the cake is firm to the touch. The inside of the cake should be slightly gooey.
- To prepare the mixed berry coulis, place the berries in a food processor or blender. Add the sifted icing sugar, blend until smooth. Strain through a sieve.
- Carefully remove the cakes from their molds and place onto serving plates. Serve with mixed berry coulis and a scoop of vanilla bean ice cream.
This is the perfect chocolate cake to serve as a dessert, for a decadent afternoon tea, or whenever chocolate cravings strike.
Despite its impressive flavor, the recipe is deceptively simple and yields an intense chocolate taste with a moreish, fudgy center. For a gourmet twist, add a touch of finely grated orange zest to the batter.
Serve with a tangy, homemade berry coulis and a scoop of vanilla ice cream—fresh raspberries make an excellent addition too.
Enjoy!
