Marion’s Grandmother Chocolate Cake

This is the recipe my friend Marion (@novice_en_cuisine) has shared a few years ago. And it is such a special recipe because it is the one from her Grandmother. Of course, you will find Marion’s recipe right HERE! I remember I had baked this cake for Marion’s Birthday.

I hope you will enjoy them as it as I did. Bon Appétit!

As always, you will find the Step-by-Step Video below the recipe.

1x2x3x

• ▢ 7 oz (200 g) dark chocolate chips (I used Barry Callebaut Dark Chocolate 54.5%)
• ▢ 11 tbsp (150 g) butter (Melted)
• ▢ 3 1/2 tbsp (50 g) milk

• ▢ 1 tbsp (12 g) baking powder

Instructions

 

• Preheat oven to 350F/180C.
• Pour your milk into a medium saucepan. Add the dark chocolate and butter. Heat on medium low until the butter is almost melted. Set aside and whisk until combined.
• Separate egg yolks from egg whites in two mixing bowls.
• In the first mixing bowl, whisk together the Egg Yolks with the Sugar until light and fluffy. About 5 minutes on medium high speed. Fold the cooled melted chocolate preparation, flour and baking powder.
• In the second mixing bowl, whip the egg whites until stiff peaks. Then, using a spatula carefully fold it into your first preparation.
