A GOOEY, DECADENT CHOCOLATE CAKE

Provided by Tyler Florence

Categories     dessert

Time 2h20m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

2 1/2 cups cake flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 sticks unsalted butter, at room temperature
2 cups granulated sugar
3 1/2 ounces dark chocolate, melted and cooled
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 eggs
1 1/2 cups cold water
Raspberry liqueur, such as Chambord, for drizzling
Nonstick cooking spray
Chocolate Chip Buttercream, recipe follows
Dark chocolate shavings, for decoration
3 cups powdered sugar
7 tablespoons hot water
4 ounces dark chocolate, melted and cooled
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/2 stick unsalted butter, at room temperature
1/4 cup semisweet dark chocolate, finely chopped

Steps:

  • Position an oven rack in the center of the oven and preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • In a large bowl, sift together the flour, baking soda and salt; set aside. In the bowl of an electric mixer, cream the butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Add the cooled chocolate and vanilla and beat for 3 minutes to incorporate. Beat in the eggs one at a time. Scrape down the sides of the bowl and beat for another 3 minutes. Gradually mix in the dry ingredients in three batches, alternating with the cold water. Beat for 1 minute after each addition to incorporate the ingredients. Mix until the batter is smooth.
  • Coat two 9-inch round cake pans with nonstick cooking spray. Cut 2 circles of parchment paper to fit the pan bottoms and place them inside the pans; then spray the paper for added non-stick insurance. Pour the batter into the prepared pans and smooth the surface with a spatula; the pans should be two-thirds full. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes. The cake is cooked when a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean and the cake springs back when touched. Leave to cool for 40 minutes.
  • Turn the cakes out of the pans and remove the paper. Drizzle them with a few tablespoons of raspberry liqueur. With a metal spatula, spread 1/2 cup Chocolate Chip Buttercream on top of one of the layers. Start in the center and work your way out. Carefully place the second layer on top. Smooth the sides with buttercream, and then spread the rest over the top so that the cake is completely covered. Refrigerate for 5 minutes before decorating or cutting.
  • With a large knife, scrape some shavings from a block of dark chocolate. Scatter the shavings over the cake.
  • In the bowl of an electric mixer, dissolve the powdered sugar and water at low speed. Beat in the dark chocolate and vanilla. Add the butter gradually in small bits. Mix until everything is completely incorporated. Using a spatula, fold in the chopped chocolate and give a final quick spin.

GOOEY CHOCOLATE CAKE



Gooey Chocolate Cake image

This is the chocolate cake we made all the time as poor students with my bestest friend Tuija! There are no fancy ingredients, you can put the cake together in minutes and the end result is pure chocolate decadance. The cake is flat and doesn't exactly make a pretty presenatation (we usually even skipped the parchment paper and scraped the cake off the bottom of the springform pan :-) but the taste more than makes up for it.

Time 30m

Yield 1 cake, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

300 ml sugar
150 ml all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons vanilla sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
4 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa
150 g butter, melted
2 eggs

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 200 degrees C.
  • Line the bottom of a springform pan with parchment paper, grease and flour the paper and the sides of the pan.
  • Whisk the eggs briefly with a fork (so the yolks break) and mix the eggs with melted butter.
  • Combine all dry ingredients.
  • Mix dry ingredients with the butter mixture.

  • If the cake wobbles and looks undone after 20 minutes, don't worry: it's supposed to.
  • Let cool.
  • The cake is very gooey at the bottom, so if you wish to transfer it to a serving plate take the parchment paper too!
  • Serve with a dollop of whipped cream.

  • To ensure the cake is cooked evenly, place it in the center of the oven and rotate the pan halfway through the baking time.
  • Let the cake cool completely before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld together and the texture to set properly.
