+ | ====== Chocolate, Prune & Rum Cake ====== | ||
+ | |||
+ | /* Description */ | ||

+ | |||
+ | |**Preheat: | ||
+ | |**Prep:** 0: | ||
+ | |||
+ | ====== Ingredients ====== | ||
+ | - 9 tablespoons salted butter (1 tablespoon softened) | ||
+ | - 8 ounces pitted prunes (about 1 1/2 cups), finely chopped | ||
+ | - 1/3 cup dark rum | ||
+ | - 1 tablespoon molasses | ||
+ | - 12 ounces bittersweet chocolate, finely chopped | ||
+ | - 6 large eggs, separated | ||
+ | - 1/3 cup plus 1/4 cup white sugar | ||
+ | - 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt | ||
+ | |||
+ | ====== Directions ====== | ||
+ | - Heat the oven to 325°F with a rack in the middle position. Coat the bottom and sides of a 9-inch springform pan evenly with the tablespoon of softened butter. In a 2-cup liquid measuring cup, combine the prunes, rum and molasses. Microwave until the rum is bubbling, 45 to 60 seconds. Let sit for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. | ||
+ | - In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the remaining 8 tablespoons of butter. Remove from the heat and immediately add the chocolate, then whisk until melted and completely smooth. In a large bowl, whisk together the egg yolks and ⅓ cup of sugar until pale and glossy, about 30 seconds. Slowly add the melted chocolate mixture and continue whisking until smooth. Stir in the prune mixture. | ||
+ | - Using a stand mixer with a whisk attachment, whip the egg whites and salt on medium-high speed until light and foamy, about 1 minute. With the mixer running, slowly sprinkle in the remaining 1/4 cup of sugar and continue to whip until the whites are thick and glossy and hold soft peaks, about 1 minute. | ||
+ | - Whisk 1/3 of the whipped egg whites into the chocolate mixture to lighten it. Gently fold in the remaining whites with a rubber spatula until the batter is marbled but not fully blended. | ||
+ | - Pour the batter into the prepared pan. If needed, smooth the top with a spatula. Bake until the edges of the cake are firm and cracked, 35 to 40 minutes. The center will be just set, yet soft to the touch. | ||
+ | - Cool the cake in the pan on a wire rack for at least 1 hour before serving (the cake will settle and sink as it cools). | ||
+ | |||
+ | ====== Notes ====== | ||
+ | * Don’t over-bake this cake. Don’t be alarmed if the center still jiggles a bit and yields to gentle pressure; the cake will continue to set after it comes out of the oven. | ||
