If you want to taste a real chocolate cake, then try this Flourless Dark Chocolate Cake.
Usually, I have felt that I don’t get enough of chocolate flavor in cakes. On the other hand, when it comes to brownies they are loaded with chocolate but I lose that cakey texture.
Even though there is no flour in the cake, the meringue is coming to rescue you to give that cakey texture. Meringue is the best part of this Flourless Dark Chocolate Cake.
Where I found this Recipe?
This Cake is adapted from the Dessert Book named “Sweet”, a Top Dessert Recipe book. I have been trying out recipes from her book and it all turned out very well. Flourless Chocolate cake is one in my list and I thought to share the recipe with you, because you should taste this cake. Its just delicious.
This Recipe totally depends on the eggs and chocolate. Using a good quality dark chocolate will make the cake better. So try using Couverture Chocolate like Amul, Callebaut or Valrhona. Here I used Amul 55% Dark.
You believe me or not there is a fun and serious part of this recipe is adding black coffee to the chocolate. How many of you tried adding water or liquid to chocolate?? This is possible without splitting the chocolate, but be gentle when doing it. You will be surprised!!
I am sharing this recipe as my last recipe of the year 2018. I will meet you with some more fresh and interesting recipes next year, so Stay tuned for more Baking fun.
Wishing you all a HAPPY NEW YEAR!! Stay focused and just follow your thoughts. Looking forward for a more fun filled year 🙂
I am sending this recipe for “Bakeathon” where a group of bloggers share baked recipes all through December sharing 3 posts a week. Check below to know the fellow bakers.
