Yield Serves 20

Number Of Ingredients 10

SAUCE
3 10-ounce packages frozen raspberries in syrup, thawed
CAKE
12 ounces semisweet chocolate, coarsely chopped
4 ounces unsweetened chocolate, chopped
1 pound (4 sticks) unsalted butter, diced
1 cup freshly brewed espresso or 1 tablespoon instant espresso powder dissolved in 1 cup water
1 cup (packed) golden brown sugar
8 large eggs, beaten to blend
Fresh raspberries

Steps:

  • FOR SAUCE:
  • Working in batches, puree raspberries and syrup in processor. Strain puree into medium bowl. Chill. (Can be made 2 days ahead. Keep chilled.)
  • FOR CAKE:
  • Preheat oven to 350 °F. Line bottom of 9-inch-diameter cake pan with 2-inch-high sides with parchment. Place all chocolate in large bowl. Bring butter, espresso and sugar to boil in medium saucepan, stirring to dissolve sugar. Add to chocolate; whisk until smooth. Cool slightly. Whisk in eggs.
  • Pour batter into prepared pan. Place cake pan in roasting pan. Pour enough hot water into roasting pan to come halfway up sides of cake pan. Bake until center of cake is set and tester inserted into center comes out with a few moist crumbs attached, about 1 hour. Remove pan from water. Chill cake overnight.

Time 2h10m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 24

1 1/2 cups half-and-half
1/2 vanilla bean, split lengthwise, seeds scraped
4 large egg yolks
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
3 ounces best-quality white chocolate, finely chopped
1 1/2 cups heavy cream
1/4 cup crushed cacao nibs
2 tablespoons crushed espresso beans
2 tablespoons high-quality Dutch processed cocoa powder, such as Valrhona or Callebaut
2 tablespoons confectioners' sugar, plus more for serving
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup high-quality Dutch processed cocoa powder, such as Valrhona or Callebaut
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
3 large eggs, separated
1/4 cup lightly packed brown sugar
2 cups buttermilk
1/4 cup canola oil
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted, plus more for the waffle iron
3 ounces bittersweet chocolate, finely chopped
1 pint strawberries, quartered

Steps:

  • For the white chocolate custard sauce: Combine the half-and-half and vanilla bean and seeds in a small saucepan over medium heat and bring to a simmer. Remove from the heat and let cool slightly.
  • Whisk together the egg yolks and granulated sugar in a medium bowl until pale yellow. Slowly whisk in some of the warm half-and-half mixture until smooth. Pour the mixture back into the saucepan and cook over medium heat, stirring with a wooden spoon, until it thickens slightly and coats the back of the spoon. Do not boil. Remove from the heat, add the white chocolate and whisk until smooth. Strain into a bowl, cover, and chill until cold.
  • For the chocolate-espresso whipped cream: Combine the cream, cocoa nibs and espresso beans in a small saucepan and bring to simmer. Immediately remove from the heat and refrigerate until cold. Strain the cream into a chilled bowl, add the cocoa powder, confectioners' sugar and vanilla and whip to soft peaks.
  • For the dark chocolate waffles: Whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a large bowl. Whisk together the egg yolks and brown sugar until smooth. Add the buttermilk, oil and vanilla and whisk until combined. Add the wet mixture to the dry mixture and mix until just combined. Fold in the butter and chocolate.
  • Whip the egg whites in a medium bowl until soft peaks form. Fold the whites into the batter.
  • Heat a waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions. Brush the grates with butter and ladle 1/4 cup of batter in each grate, close, and cook until crisp and browned and steam stops coming from the waffle iron, 4 to 5 minutes. Repeat with the remaining batter. Serve with the custard sauce, whipped cream, some strawberries and a dusting of confectioners' sugar.

CHOCOLATE ESPRESSO SAUCE RECIPE



Chocolate Espresso Sauce Recipe image

Provided by á-3112

Number Of Ingredients 3

1 cup heavy cream
1 tablespoon instant espresso powder
8 ounces bittersweet chocolate, finely chopped

Steps:

  • 1. To make the espresso sauce: In a small saucepan, bring cream to a boil over medium-high heat. Add espresso powder, and whisk to dissolve. 2. Place the chopped chocolate in a medium bowl, and pour hot cream over chocolate. Let soften 5 minutes. Stir to a smooth consistency, and let cool completely. Store, refrigerated, in an airtight container up to 1 week. Bring sauce to room temperature before assembling dessert

Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate: The quality of the chocolate you use will have a big impact on the final flavor of the sauce, so be sure to use a good-quality semisweet or bittersweet chocolate.
  • Don't overheat the chocolate: Overheating the chocolate can cause it to seize up and become grainy, so be careful not to let it get too hot.
  • Use a double boiler: A double boiler is the best way to melt chocolate because it allows you to control the temperature and prevent the chocolate from overheating.
  • Add flavorings gradually: If you're adding flavorings like espresso powder, vanilla extract, or cayenne pepper, start with a small amount and add more to taste.
  • Let the sauce cool before serving: The sauce will thicken as it cools, so be sure to let it cool for a few minutes before serving.

Conclusion:

This chocolate espresso sauce is a delicious and versatile sauce that can be used to flavor a variety of desserts, including cakes, brownies, ice cream, and fruit. It's also a great way to add a touch of sophistication to your coffee or hot chocolate. With just a few simple ingredients, you can easily make this sauce at home and enjoy its rich, chocolatey flavor.
