Time 5m

Yield 1 serving

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 egg
A few drops vanilla extract
3 to 4 tablespoons granulated sugar, to taste
3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
A pinch of kosher salt
1 teaspoon mini chocolate chips (optional)
Confectioners' sugar or vanilla ice cream (optional)

Steps:

  • Microwave the butter in a microwave-safe mug in 10-second increments until melted, 20 to 30 seconds. Crack the egg into a small bowl; add the vanilla and whisk to combine using a small whisk or fork. Pour the egg mixture into the mug over the butter and whisk to combine.
  • Add the sugar, cocoa powder and salt and whisk until mostly smooth (a few lumps are O.K.). Scrape down the sides the best you can with a spoon or a small silicone spatula. Sprinkle with mini chocolate chips, if desired.
  • Cook in the microwave on high for 1 to 1 1/2 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out mostly clean. Sift a little confectioners' sugar on top or serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, if desired. Dig in with a spoon.

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

Nonstick cooking spray
3/4 cup bittersweet chocolate chips
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
Zest of 1 orange
1/4 cup sugar
1 whole egg, plus 1 egg yolk
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Sea salt, for sprinkling
1 orange, segments cut into supremes

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Spray a muffin tin with nonstick cooking spray.
  • Melt the chocolate, butter and oil in a medium bowl in the microwave until completely melted, about 1 minute. Whisk the mixture until smooth. Stir in the orange zest and cool slightly.

Categories     dessert

Time 2h

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1/2 cup butter, room temperature
1 cup sugar
2 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/2 orange, zested and juiced
1 cup pureed yams or 1 (15-ounce can) yams, drained and pureed
3 tablespoons sour cream
2 cups flour plus 2 tablespoons
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
Salt
3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa
Pinch of cayenne pepper
3 tablespoons hot water

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and grease a 1 1/2-quart glass loaf pan.
  • In a large bowl, using a mixer, cream the butter with sugar at high speed until fluffy and pale yellow, about 5 minutes. Add in the eggs, vanilla, and orange zest. Mix in the yams, sour cream and orange juice.
  • In a medium bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and 3/4 teaspoon salt. Slowly mix in the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, mixing on low speed until just incorporated. Spoon out 1/3 of the cake batter and place in a small bowl.
  • In a small measuring cup, make a thin paste of the cocoa, cayenne, and hot water, stirring until smooth. Pour into the small bowl of cake batter and stir just until well mixed. Pour half the (non-chocolate) yam batter into the prepared loaf pan. Spoon on the chocolate batter, and then finish by pouring the remaining yam batter on top. Use a butter knife to cut through the cake to create a marbling effect. Bake until the cake is firm and toothpick comes out clean, 55 to 60 minutes. Cool before slicing.

Tips:

  • To ensure a smooth and even cake batter, make sure all of your ingredients are at room temperature before you start mixing.
  • Use high-quality chocolate for the best flavor. A semisweet or bittersweet chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 60% is ideal.
  • Do not overmix the batter. Overmixing can result in a tough, dense cake.
  • Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs attached.
  • Allow the cake to cool completely before frosting it. This will help the frosting to set properly.
  • For a rich, decadent frosting, use a ganache made with heavy cream and chocolate.
  • Garnish the cake with chopped nuts, sprinkles, or fresh berries for a festive touch.

Conclusion:

This Arabian chocolate cake is a delicious and impressive dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With its moist, chocolatey crumb and rich, decadent frosting, this cake is sure to be a hit. Whether you are a seasoned baker or a beginner, this recipe is easy to follow and will help you create a stunning cake that will wow your friends and family.
