Chocolate Cloud Cake by Nigella Lawson





Ingredients: 250g dark chocolate, minimum 70% cocoa solids;


125g unsalted butter, softened; 6 eggs: 2 whole, 4 separated;


175g caster sugar; 2 tablespoons Cointreau (optional); grated zest of 1 orange (optional); 23cm springform cake tin.


for the cream topping: 500ml double cream; 1 teaspoon vanilla extract; 1 tablespoon Cointreau (optional); half teaspoon unsweetened cocoa powder for sprinkling.





Preheat the oven to 180潞C/gas mark 4.





Line the bottom of the cake tin with baking parchment.





Melt the chocolate either in a double boiler or a microwave, and then let the butter melt in the warm chocolate.





Beat the 2 whole eggs and 4 egg yolks with 75g of the caster sugar, then gently add the chocolate mixture, the Cointreau and orange zest.





In another bowl, whisk the 4 egg whites until foamy, then gradually add the 100g of sugar and whisk until the whites are holding their shape but not too stiff. Lighten the chocolate mixture with a dollop of egg whites, and then fold in the rest of the whites. Pour into the prepared tin and bake for 35-40 minutes or until the cake is risen and cracked and the centre is no longer wobbly. Cool the cake in its tin on a wire rack; the middle will sink as it cools.





When you are ready to eat, place the still tin-bound cake on a cake stand or plate for serving and carefully remove the cake from its tin. Don't worry about cracks or rough edges: it's the crater look we're going for here. Whip the cream until it's soft and then add the vanilla and Cointreau and continue whisking until the cream is firm but not stiff. Fill the crater of the cake with the whipped cream, easing it out gently towards the edges of the cake, and dust the top lightly with cocoa powder pushed through a tea-strainer.





Serves 8-12





You can make this into an Easter Nest Cake by folding 200g melted chocolate into the cream topping and dotting with the sugar-coated eggs instead of the cocoa. Leave the Cointreau out of both the cake and the cream.

Watch Ready Steady Cook!!!!!!!!!!
CHOCOLATE CAKE WITH CARAMEL-MILK CHOCOLATE FROSTING





A classic chocolate layer cake with a new-fashioned, thick, and rich frosting. This treat can be made up to two days ahead.





Cake


Nonstick vegetable oil spray


2 cups sifted cake flour (sifted, then measured)


1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder (preferably Dutch-process)


1 1/4 teaspoons baking soda


3/4 teaspoon salt


1/2 teaspoon baking powder


1 1/2 cups (packed) golden brown sugar


1 cup plus 2 tablespoons (2 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter, room temperature


3 large eggs


1 tablespoon vanilla extract


1 cup plus 2 tablespoons buttermilk


1/2 cup lukewarm water


1 cup semisweet chocolate chips





Frosting


24 ounces imported milk chocolate (such as Lindt), finely chopped


3 ounces bittersweet (not unsweetened) or semisweet chocolate, finely chopped


1 1/2 cups sugar


1/2 cup water


2 1/4 cups whipping cream





For cake:


Preheat oven to 350掳F. Spray three 9-inch-diameter cake pans with 1 1/2-inch-high sides with nonstick spray. Line bottom of pans with parchment paper. Whisk flour and next 4 ingredients in medium bowl. Using electric mixer, beat brown sugar and butter in large bowl until fluffy, about 2 minutes. Add eggs 1 at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in vanilla. Beat in dry ingredients in 3 additions alternately with buttermilk in 2 additions. Beat in 1/2 cup lukewarm water. Stir in chocolate chips.





Divide batter among prepared pans (about 2 1/3 cups for each). Smooth tops. Bake cakes until tester inserted into center of cakes comes out clean, about 22 minutes. Cool completely in pans on racks. Invert cakes onto 9-inch-diameter cardboard rounds or tart pan bottoms (cakes are delicate). Peel off parchment.





For frosting:


Combine milk chocolate and bittersweet chocolate in large bowl. Stir sugar and 1/2 cup water in medium saucepan over medium heat until sugar dissolves. Boil without stirring until syrup is deep amber color, occasionally brushing down sides of pan with wet pastry brush and swirling pan, about 10 minutes. Carefully and slowly add whipping cream (mixture will bubble vigorously). Stir over low heat until any hard caramel bits dissolve and mixture is smooth. Pour caramel over chocolate; let stand 1 minute to allow chocolate to soften, then whisk until chocolate is melted and smooth. Chill chocolate-caramel frosting until completely cool, about 2 hours. Let stand 1 hour at room temperature before continuing.





Using electric mixer, beat frosting just until color resembles milk chocolate and frosting is easily spreadable, about 1 minute (do not overbeat or frosting will become stiff and grainy). If necessary to correct graininess, set bowl with frosting over saucepan of simmering water for 10-second intervals, whisking just until frosting is smooth and spreadable.





Place 1 cake layer on platter, flat side up. Spread 1 cup frosting evenly over top. Top with second cake layer, flat side up, pressing slightly to adhere. Spread 1 cup frosting over top. Top with third cake layer, rounded side up, pressing slightly. Spread remaining frosting over top and sides of cake, swirling decoratively. (Can be made 2 days ahead. Cover with cake dome and store at room temperature.)





Makes 12 servings.
