FLOURLESS CHOCOLATE CAKE II



Flourless Chocolate Cake II image

Perfect for chocolate lovers! Great for entertaining, deceptively easy to make. Perfect for people who can't have gluten. Serve warm with ice cream or whipped cream, or simply dusted with icing sugar. I flour the pan using cocoa powder so it won't leave white marks on the cake and keeps it totally gluten-free.

Time 2h30m

Yield 10 to 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

12 ounces semisweet or bittersweet chocolate, chopped
12 tablespoons (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter
1/4 teaspoon fine salt
6 large eggs, room temperature
1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
Confectioners' sugar and/or cocoa powder, for dusting
Serving suggestion: Really Vanilly Whipped Cream, recipe follows, or ice cream
1 cup (1/2 pint) heavy or whipping cream
2 teaspoons pure vanilla paste or extract
2 teaspoons confectioners' sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Spray a 9 by 2-inch spring form pan with nonstick spray.
  • Put the chocolate, butter, and salt in a large microwave safe bowl. Melt in the microwave on 75 percent power for 2 minutes. Stir and microwave again until completely melted, about 2 minutes more. Alternatively, put the chocolate and butter in a heatproof bowl. Bring a saucepan filled with an inch or so of water to a very slow simmer; set the bowl on the pan without touching the water. Stir occasionally until melted.
  • Beat the eggs and sugar with a standing or handheld mixer until light and thickened, about 8 to 10 minutes. Fold the melted chocolate into the whipped eggs until evenly combined.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out wet but not gooey, about 1 hour and 25 minutes. Remove cake from the oven and cool on a rack.
  • When ready to serve remove ring from spring form mold. Dust cake with confectioners' sugar or cocoa powder. Serve with whipped cream or ice cream if desired.
  • Beat the cream and vanilla in a chilled non-reactive bowl with a whisk or an electric mixer just until they hold a loose peak. (Lift the beater from the cream and look at the shape of the peak at the end of the whisk; it should hold a lazy curve.) Sift the sugar over the cream and continue to beat just until it holds a soft peak. Take care not to over beat the cream or it will be look curdy. Serve, or refrigerate covered for up to 4 hours.

Time 3h50m

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

Nonstick cooking spray, for the pan
8 ounces chopped semisweet chocolate
2 sticks (1 cup) salted butter
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup packed brown sugar
6 large eggs
1/2 cup cocoa powder
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
Dash of kosher salt
Powdered sugar, for sprinkling

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Spray a springform pan with cooking spray and line the bottom with a circle of parchment. Coat the top of the paper with the spray.
  • Melt the chocolate and butter in a double boiler, stirring in 45-second intervals to avoid burning. Set aside to cool for several minutes.
  • In the bowl of a mixer, beat the granulated sugar, brown sugar and eggs until fluffy. With the mixer on low, add the cocoa powder, vanilla and salt. Slowly drizzle in the cooled chocolate mixture and mix until just combined.
  • Pour the batter into the pan and smooth the top. Rap the pan on the counter a couple of times to release any trapped air bubbles. Bake until just set on top, about 50 minutes. Remove and allow to cool completely, then chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours or overnight.
  • Just before serving, remove the cake from the pan and place it on a platter. Sprinkle the top with sifted powdered sugar.

ALMOND CHOCOLATE CAKE (NO FLOUR)



Almond Chocolate Cake (No Flour) image

A decadent brownie like TOH recipe that does not use flour! Its creator, Peggy Gwillim, says it is gluten free. Serve with ice cream or alone. A strawberry or raspberry syrup with fresh berries looks and tastes great also. This is baked in a spring form pan. Tastes best if chilled day before. Freezes well. Notice the review from Chef #1236316 who subbed in 2 cups of almond meal for the 2 1/2 cups of almonds which is fine with me. Also notice Chef#1213645 review about subbing in an equivalent amount of raw honey for the sugar which is also fine with me.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality cocoa powder for the best flavor. Look for cocoa powder that is labeled "natural" or "unsweetened."
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the cake tough.
  • Use a bundt pan or a 9x13 inch baking pan for this recipe.
  • Be careful not to overcook the cake. It should be cooked through, but still moist in the center.
  • Let the cake cool completely before frosting it.
  • Serve the cake with your favorite frosting or glaze.

Conclusion:

This flourless chocolate cake is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. It's rich, chocolatey, and has a moist, fudgy texture. Best of all, it's made without any flour, so it's gluten-free and can be enjoyed by people with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity.
