Chocolate cake: gluten-free, dairy-free!
October 9, 2009
This is a naturally flourless and dairy-free recipe of chocolate cake from Corina Della Villa!
Ingredients
350 g dark chocolate
3/4 cup sugar
1/2 cup margarine
4 eggs
1 spoon hot water de água quente
1 fullspoon potato starch
.
.
Preparation
Pre-heat the oven. In a bowl suspended over a saucepan of simmering water (bain marie), melt the dark chocolate, the margarine and water until obtaining a homogeneous and shiny mixture. Beat the egg yolks with the sugar, and when fluffy add the molten chocolate mixture. Sprinkle the potato starch with the help of a sieve over the batter. Beat the egg whites in a separate bow, and when firm gently mix the beaten egg whites with the batter.
Bake in a mold with a loose bottom, greased with a bit of margarine and some potato starch sprinkled over it. Bake for approximately 40-50min, until the center of the cake is still wet, but the surface is already crusty. Before taking the cake out of the oven, leave the over door slightly opened, so the cake can cool down slowly. As the cake has no baking powder, it will reduce slightly in size while cooling down. You can add the topping of your choice!
I would love to make the chocolate, dairy free cake.
Would U able to print in with English measurements?
Thanks!
