BROWNIE TORTE



Brownie Torte image

Categories     Cake     Chocolate     Dessert     Bake     Kid-Friendly     Quick & Easy     Walnut     Potluck     Gourmet     Small Plates

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 cup (6 ounces) semisweet chocolate chips
2 1/2 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into bits
1 large egg
1/4 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/2 cup chopped walnuts
coffee ice cream as an accompaniment

Steps:

  • Butter and flour an 8-inch round cake pan. In a small metal bowl set over barely simmering water melt 3/4 cup of the chocolate chips and the butter, stirring until the mixture is smooth. In a bowl whisk together the egg, the sugar, and the vanilla until the mixture is foamy, whisk in the chocolate mixture and a pinch of salt, whisking until the mixture is smooth, and fold in the flour, the remaining 1/4 cup chocolate chips, and the walnuts. Spoon the batter into the pan, spreading it evenly, and bake the torte in the middle of a preheated 350°F oven for 15 to 20 minutes, or until a tester comes out clean. Transfer the torte to a rack, let it cool for 10 minutes, and serve it warm, cut into wedges, with the ice cream.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate: The quality of the chocolate you use will greatly impact the flavor of your brownie torte. Look for a chocolate with a high cocoa content (70% or higher) and a rich, dark flavor.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will result in a tough, dense brownie torte. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the brownie torte in a water bath: Baking the brownie torte in a water bath will help to prevent it from drying out and will result in a more fudgy texture.
  • Let the brownie torte cool completely before frosting it: This will help to prevent the frosting from melting.

Conclusion:

This indulgent brownie torte is the perfect dessert for any occasion. It's rich, chocolatey, and fudgy, with a creamy frosting that takes it over the top. Follow these tips to make sure your brownie torte turns out perfectly every time.
