Time 3h5m

Yield Serves 10 to 12

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 1/2 cups heavy cream
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 cup confectioners' sugar
4 ounces creme fraiche, stirred until loose and smooth
1 stick unsalted butter, room temperature, plus more for pan
1 cup granulated sugar
6 large eggs, room temperature, separated
6 ounces bittersweet chocolate, melted and slightly cooled
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups almond flour or finely ground raw whole almonds
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
Confectioners' sugar, for dusting
Fresh raspberries, for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • Whipped Creme Fraiche: Whisk cream with vanilla and salt until thickened and silky but not yet forming peaks. Add sugar and creme fraiche; whisk to soft peaks, 1 to 2 minutes more. Serve immediately, or cover and refrigerate in an airtight container up to 8 hours; stir before using.
  • Cake: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter a 9-inch springform pan. In a mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat butter with 3/4 cup granulated sugar on medium-high speed until pale and fluffy, 2 to 3 minutes. Beat in egg yolks, one at a time. Beat in chocolate and vanilla. Add almond flour and salt; beat to combine. In a separate bowl fitted with the whisk attachment, beat egg whites on low until frothy. Increase speed to medium-high and beat to soft peaks, about 1 minute. Gradually add remaining 1/4 cup granulated sugar, beating until stiff but not dry peaks form, about 1 minute more. Stir one-third of egg-white mixture into batter until no streaks remain. Gently fold in remaining egg-white mixture just to combine (do not overmix). Transfer to prepared pan; gently smooth top with an offset spatula.
  • Bake until puffed slightly and set along edges but still slightly wobbly in center, 30 to 35 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack; let cool completely, about 2 hours. Remove sides of pan. Using a spatula, gently lift cake from pan; slide onto a cake plate. Lightly dust with confectioners' sugar. Cut into wedges; serve with creme fraiche and raspberries.

Categories     Dessert

Time 1h20m

Number Of Ingredients 13

4 ounces semisweet or bittersweet chocolate (, chopped (113 grams))
2 tablespoons rum or coffee
½ cup unsalted butter (, at room temperature (113 grams))
⅔ cup + 1 tablespoon granulated sugar (, divided (132 grams))
3 large eggs (, separated)
Pinch of salt
⅓ cup almond flour/meal ((35 grams))
¼ teaspoon almond extract
½ cup cake flour (, sifted (57 grams))
4 ounces semisweet or bittersweet chocolate (, chopped (113 grams))
¼ cup rum or coffee ((60 ml))
¾ cup unsalted butter (, at room temperature (170 grams))
Slivered almonds (for garnish)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Butter and flour an 8-inch round cake pan and line with parchment paper.
  • Combine the chopped chocolate and coffee or rum in a small bowl placed over a saucepan of simmering water. Stir as the chocolate melts and remove from heat as soon as it's smooth. Set aside to cool.
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, beat the butter and 2/3 cup sugar until pale and creamy. Add the 3 egg yolks and beat until thick. Add the cooled melted chocolate. Stir in the almond extract and almond meal/flour and mix until just combined.
  • In a separate bowl and with a whisk attachment, whip the 3 egg whites and salt on high speed until foamy. Slowly add the tablespoon of sugar and whip to stiff peaks.
  • Add ¼ of the whipped egg whites to the batter and fold gently until combined. Add and fold in the remaining whites in 3 additions, alternating with the sifted cake flour. Fold only until the streaks of egg whites disappear, do not overmix.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan. Bake until the edges are set but the center still jiggles when the pan is bumped, about 25 minutes.
  • Let cool 10 minutes, then run a knife around the edges to remove cake from pan and place on a wire rack to cool completely.
  • Combine the chopped chocolate and coffee or run in a small bowl placed over a saucepan of simmering water. Stir as the chocolate melts and remove from heat as soon as it's smooth.
  • Add the butter a tablespoon at a time and use a whisk to beat it into the chocolate. Whisk until smooth.
  • Let the icing cool to a spreadable consistency, stirring it every 5 minutes or so. It should take about 15-20 minutes, depending on the temperature of your kitchen.
  • Spoon the icing on top of the cooled cake and spread it to cover. Garnish with slivered almonds.
