Time 7h10m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

7 ounces semisweet chocolate, finely chopped
2/3 cup whole milk
1/3 cup sugar
1 large egg yolk
1/2 pound (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Place the chocolate in a medium bowl and set aside. Combine the milk and all but 1 tablespoon of the sugar in a small saucepan. Heat over medium heat, stirring constantly until the sugar is completely dissolved. Stop stirring and cook until the milk begins to bubble around the edge of the pan. Remove the pan from the heat. Whisk together the egg yolk and the remaining 1 tablespoon sugar in a small bowl. Pour half of the hot milk over the yolk mixture, whisking constantly, until the mixture thickens slightly and reaches 183 degrees on an instant-read thermometer. Immediately pour the mixture over the chocolate. Whisk until the chocolate is melted. Add the butter 1/2 tablespoon at a time, whisking until the butter is melted and the mixture is smooth. Whisk in the vanilla. Scrape the batter into a 6-inch round cake pan and smooth the top with a rubber spatula. Cover the pan with a plastic wrap and place it in the freezer for at leas 6 hours, or overnight. To unmold the cake, carefully immerse the pan in hot water for a few seconds. Wipe the bottom and side of the pan dry and invert the cake onto a serving platter. Decorate the top of the cake by running a hot dull knife across its surface in a wave pattern (dip the knife in hot water and wipe completely dry before using it). Lightly dust the top of the cake with sifted cocoa powder. Allow the cake to stand at room temperature for 45 minutes before serving.

Yield Makes one 9x5" loaf

Number Of Ingredients 23

Cake:
Nonstick vegetable oil spray
1 1/3 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1/4 cup malted milk powder
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
3/4 teaspoon baking powder
2 large eggs
1 large egg yolk
1 1/2 cups plus 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 cup buttermilk
1/3 cup vegetable oil
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
3/4 cup coffee, cooled, divided
2 tablespoons light brown sugar
Glaze:
3 ounces bittersweet chocolate, chopped
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup heavy cream
1/4 cup malted milk powder
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
Chocolate pearls; coarsely chopped malt balls (for serving; optional)

Steps:

  • Cake:
  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Lightly coat a 9x5" loaf pan with nonstick spray, then line with parchment paper, leaving overhang on long sides. Whisk flour, cocoa powder, malted milk powder, salt, baking soda, and baking powder in a large bowl.
  • Whisk eggs, egg yolk, and 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar in a medium bowl just to blend. Add buttermilk, oil, vanilla extract, and 1/2 cup coffee, whisking just to blend. Gradually add buttermilk mixture to dry ingredients, stirring with a rubber spatula or a wooden spoon until just combined (batter will be a little lumpy; you don't want to overmix).
  • Scrape batter into prepared pan (hold back a little if using a slightly smaller loaf pan) and smooth surface. Bake until cake pulls away from sides of pan and a tester inserted into center comes out clean, 60-70 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, combine brown sugar, remaining 1/4 cup coffee, and remaining 2 tablespoons granulated sugar in a small bowl, stirring to dissolve sugar.
  • Transfer cake pan to a wire rack set inside a rimmed baking sheet and brush with coffee mixture (use all of it). Let cake cool completely in pan before turning out onto rack.
  • Glaze:
  • Place chocolate and vanilla in a medium bowl. Bring cream, malted milk powder, and salt to a bare simmer in a small saucepan. Pour over chocolate mixture and let sit 5 minutes.
  • Gently stir with a rubber spatula until chocolate is melted and mixture is combined. While still warm, pour glaze over turned-out cake on wire rack, letting it drip over the sides (any extra glaze will pool in baking sheet). Decorate with chocolate pearls and malt balls, if desired. Let cake sit until glaze is set, about 30 minutes.
  • Do ahead:
  • Cake can be baked and glazed 3 days ahead. Store tightly wrapped at room temperature.

This is the first recipe I've tried out of my new cookbook, A New Way To Cook. It turned out great. I loved chocolate malt balls and the malted flavor in general. The malted milk powder also helps to keep the creamy texture even though you are using 1% lowfat milk.
