Provided by Anna Glover

Categories     Afternoon tea, Dessert, Treat

Total Time 1 hours

Prep Time 20 minutes

Cook Time 40 minutes

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 11

225ml sunflower oil , plus extra for the tins
250g caster sugar
3 large eggs
225ml milk
250g self-raising flour
4 tbsp cocoa
1½ tsp bicarbonate of soda
150g raspberry jam
100g frozen raspberries , defrosted
300ml double cream
2 tbsp icing sugar

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Oil and line two round 20cm springform cake tins with baking parchment. Whisk the oil, sugar, eggs and milk in a bowl until smooth. Sieve the flour, cocoa and bicarb into another large bowl, then gradually mix in the wet ingredients.
  • Divide the mixture between the tins and bake for 35-40 mins until the cakes are risen and spring back when pressed. Leave to cool in the tins for 10 mins, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • For the raspberry layer, stir the jam and the defrosted raspberries together. Once the cakes are cool, whip the cream with the sugar to soft peaks, then gently fold half the raspberry mixture through the cream to create a ripple effect.
  • Spoon most of the reserved raspberry mixture over one of the cakes, then dollop on half of the cream. Smooth over with a palette knife, then place the other sponge on top. Swirl over the remaining cream and swirl the last of the raspberry mixture through it. Will keep in the fridge for two days.

DOUBLE CHOCOLATE LAYER CAKE RECIPE | EPICURIOUS



Double Chocolate Layer Cake Recipe | Epicurious image

In old-fashioned chocolate cake recipe, Ed Kasky uses Callebaut for the cake & Guittard for the frosting, but any fine-quality semisweet chocolate will work.

Provided by Ed Kasky

Yield Serves 12 to 14

Number Of Ingredients 18

3 oz. fine-quality semisweet chocolate such as Callebaut
1½ cups hot brewed coffee
3 cups sugar
2½ cups all-purpose flour
1½ cups unsweetened cocoa powder (not Dutch process)
2 tsp. baking soda
¾ tsp. baking powder
1¼ tsp. salt
3 large eggs
¾ cup vegetable oil
1½ cups well-shaken buttermilk
¾ tsp. vanilla extract
1 pound fine-quality semisweet chocolate such as Callebaut
1 cup heavy cream
2 Tbsp. sugar
2 Tbsp. light corn syrup
½ stick (¼ cup) unsalted butter
two 10- by 2-inch round cake pans

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 300°F. and grease pans. Line bottoms with rounds of wax paper and grease paper.
  • Finely chop chocolate and in a bowl combine with hot coffee. Let mixture stand, stirring occasionally, until chocolate is melted and mixture is smooth.
  • Into a large bowl sift together sugar, flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. In another large bowl with an electric mixer beat eggs until thickened slightly and lemon colored (about 3 minutes with a standing mixer or 5 minutes with a hand-held mixer). Slowly add oil, buttermilk, vanilla, and melted chocolate mixture to eggs, beating until combined well. Add sugar mixture and beat on medium speed until just combined well. Divide batter between pans and bake in middle of oven until a tester inserted in center comes out clean, 1 hour to 1 hour and 10 minutes.
  • Cool layers completely in pans on racks. Run a thin knife around edges of pans and invert layers onto racks. Carefully remove wax paper and cool layers completely. Cake layers may be made 1 day ahead and kept, wrapped well in plastic wrap, at room temperature.
  • Finely chop chocolate. In a 1½- to 2-quart saucepan bring cream, sugar, and corn syrup to a boil over moderately low heat, whisking until sugar is dissolved. Remove pan from heat and add chocolate, whisking until chocolate is melted. Cut butter into pieces and add to frosting, whisking until smooth.
  • Transfer frosting to a bowl and cool, stirring occasionally, until spreadable (depending on chocolate used, it may be necessary to chill frosting to spreadable consistency).
  • Spread frosting between cake layers and over top and sides. Cake keeps, covered and chilled, 3 days. Bring cake to room temperature before serving.
