DECADENT (GLUTEN-FREE!) CHOCOLATE CAKE



Decadent (Gluten-Free!) Chocolate Cake image

This chocolate cake is a perfect dessert option when a guest needs to avoid gluten: No one else at the party will have a clue that it's gluten-free! My secret weapon is Thomas Keller's "Cup4Cup" gluten-free flour. I substitute it, literally cup for cup, for the flour in most recipes, and trust me, no one can tell the difference! Happy guests and a happy host!

Time 1h40m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 pound plus 3 ounces bittersweet chocolate, such as Lindt, broken into chunks
10 tablespoons (1 1/4 sticks) unsalted butter, cut into pieces, at room temperature
1 tablespoon Cup4Cup gluten-free flour
1 1/2 tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon instant coffee granules
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
4 extra-large eggs, at room temperature, separated
1/4 cup heavy cream
Vanilla or coffee ice cream, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Grease an 8-inch springform pan and line the bottom with parchment paper.
  • Place the one pound of chocolate in a large heatproof bowl set over a pan of simmering water and stir occasionally until the chocolate is melted. Off the heat, immediately stir in the butter, flour, sugar, coffee granules and salt with a rubber spatula. Whisk in the egg yolks until smooth.
  • Place the egg whites in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment and beat until they form soft peaks. Scrape the egg whites into the chocolate mixture and fold them in very carefully with a rubber spatula, just until combined. Scrape the mixture into the prepared pan, smooth the top and bake for 15 minutes exactly. (Be sure your oven temperature is accurate!)
  • Turn the oven off and leave the cake in the oven, leaving the door slightly ajar. Allow the cake to cool in the oven for 1 hour. The cake will sink in the middle.
  • Carefully release the sides of the pan and slide the cake onto a flat serving plate or cake stand. Place the 3 ounces of chocolate and the heavy cream in a heatproof bowl set over a pan of simmering water and heat just until the chocolate melts, stirring occasionally. Add a drop of cream if the mixture is too thick to pour. Pour the chocolate onto the sunken part of the cake, leaving the edge unfrosted. Allow to cool and serve warm or at room temperature with a scoop of ice cream.

Provided by By Betty Crocker Kitchens

Categories     Dessert

Time 5h40m

Yield 16

Number Of Ingredients 13

6 eggs
1 box Betty Crocker™ Super Moist™ devil's food cake mix
1/2 cup water
1/4 cup vegetable oil
2 tablespoons powdered sugar
3/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons whipping cream
4 oz cream cheese, softened
3 tablespoons powdered sugar
3/4 cup white vanilla baking chips
3 bars (1.4 oz each) chocolate-covered English toffee candy, coarsely chopped
1/2 cup butter, softened (do not use margarine)
3 envelopes (1 oz each) premelted unsweetened baking chocolate
1 1/4 cups powdered sugar

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 375°F (350°F for dark or nonstick pans). Line bottoms only of two 13x9-inch pans with foil or waxed paper; spray with baking spray with flour.
  • In large bowl, beat eggs with electric mixer on high speed about 5 minutes or until thick and lemon colored. Add cake mix, water and oil; beat on low speed 30 seconds, then on medium speed 2 minutes, scraping bowl occasionally. Place half the batter (about 2 1/2 cups) in each pan. Spread batter slightly higher in corners than at the center.
  • Bake 13 to 17 minutes or until cake springs back when lightly touched in center. Run knife around edges of pans to loosen cakes if necessary. Turn each cake upside down onto clean kitchen towel each sprinkled with 1 tablespoon powdered sugar; carefully remove foil. Cool completely, about 45 minutes.
  • In medium bowl, beat 3/4 cup of the whipping cream on high speed until stiff peaks form; set aside. In another medium bowl, beat cream cheese and 3 tablespoons powdered sugar on medium speed until smooth; set aside.
  • In small microwavable bowl, microwave baking chips and 2 tablespoons whipping cream on High 30 seconds; stir. Microwave 15 to 30 seconds longer; stir until chips are melted. Stir melted chips into cream cheese mixture. Add whipped cream and toffee candy to mixture; stir until well blended. Cover; refrigerate at least 1 hour.
  • Trim edges of cakes to make even. Cut each cake in half lengthwise. If necessary, trim top of layers to make flat surface. Place 1 cake piece on serving platter; spread with one-third of the filling (about 3/4 cup). Repeat layers twice. Top with remaining cake piece. Gently press in sides to straighten; if necessary, trim sides until even. Cover; refrigerate 30 minutes.
  • In medium microwavable bowl, beat butter on medium speed until smooth. On low speed, beat in remaining glaze ingredients until well blended. Reserve 3/4 cup of the glaze for garnish; cover and let stand at room temperature about 30 minutes or until thick enough to pipe. Meanwhile, microwave remaining glaze on High about 10 seconds or until slightly warm and spreading consistency. Spread over top of torte, letting some drip down sides. Refrigerate torte about 30 minutes or until glaze is set.
  • Spoon reserved 3/4 cup glaze into decorating bag fitted with small star tip. Pipe decorative border around top edges of torte. Refrigerate at least 2 hours. (Torte can be made 2 days ahead; wrap sides tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate.) Let cake stand at room temperature 20 minutes before serving. Store covered in refrigerator.

EASY, DECADENT, INCREDIBLY CHOCOLATEY CHOCOLATE TORTE GLUTEN FRE



Easy, Decadent, Incredibly Chocolatey Chocolate Torte Gluten Fre image

Below I give you my favorite dessert recipe. It's so easy a child can do it to perfection. Just melt, mix, pour, bake. And out comes the most intense chocolate experience. I accompany this with whipped cream (beat heavy cream with sugar and vanilla extract until semi stiff. Use your senses, taste & smell & DO NOT overwhip. If you raise your beater, cream should hold, but needn't stand up & salute) and strawberry sauce (thaw a container of frozen strawberries or any berries and liquefy in a blender or by a hand-held). Both are ridiculously easy to make too but are celestial accompaniments to this torte.

Time 1h20m

Yield 1 torte, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

8 ounces semisweet chocolate (Baker's is fine, but go wild if you want)
8 ounces salted butter
1 cup sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla extract (this cannot be imitation. Trust me!)
4 large eggs

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 f.
  • Butter at 9″ round cake pan, line the bottom with a round of parchment paper cut to fit, butter the paper and dust the pan with cocoa powder, shake out excess.
  • Place broken up chocolate and melt with the butter in a heavy saucepan over lowest possible heat & cover. Or, you can place the pan in another pan containing simmering water. Remove cover when partially melted & stir. When fully melted, remove from heat and stir in sugar, stirring until no sugar granules are visible. Add the eggs one at a time, whisking after each addition. Pour into pan and place in a jelly roll pan, adding a small amount of hot water. Bake about 1 hour. Remove from the oven and let cool. REFRIGERATE OVERNIGHT.
  • Run a sharp knife around the rim, place a cake plate or cutting board over the top of the pan, and turn it over, bang several times if you need to dislodge the cake.
  • Let stand for 30-45 minutes until sides are soft enough to be smoothed with a knife. Remove parchment round.
  • You can serve the whipped cream on the side. I spread all of it (I usually whip 2 cups) in a thick layer, as thick as the torte, on the torte. It looks spectacular! If you do this, refrigerate the iced torte.
  • If you don't ice, sprinkle the entire top with cocoa powder. Sometimes, the top can look a little messy, but this makes it look beautiful.
  • Easy? The best things are.

Tips:

  • Make sure all ingredients are at room temperature before starting the recipe, as this will help the batter mix more evenly.
  • Use a high-quality cocoa powder for the best flavor. A good option is a Dutch-process cocoa powder, which has a richer, darker flavor than natural cocoa powder.
  • Do not overmix the batter, as this can result in a tough torte. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the torte in a water bath to prevent it from drying out. Place the torte pan inside a larger pan filled with hot water, and bake according to the recipe instructions.
  • Let the torte cool completely before frosting it. This will help the frosting set properly.
  • If you don't have a springform pan, you can use a regular 9-inch cake pan. Just be sure to grease and flour the pan before pouring in the batter.
  • This torte can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Just be sure to bring it to room temperature before serving.

Conclusion:

This easy and decadent chocolate torte is the perfect dessert for any chocolate lover. With its rich, fudgy texture and intense chocolate flavor, this torte is sure to be a hit at your next party or gathering. The gluten-free flour blend makes this torte accessible to people with gluten sensitivities, and the frosting adds a touch of sweetness and creaminess that perfectly complements the chocolate flavor.
