La Bête Noire Recipe

Provided by Jason Aronen

Yield 16 Servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 cup water
3/4 cup sugar
9 tablespoons (1 stick plus 1 tablespoon) unsalted butter, diced
18 ounces bittersweet (not unsweetened) or semisweet chocolate, chopped
6 large eggs
1 cup heavy whipping cream
8 ounces bittersweet (not unsweetened) or semisweet chocolate, chopped
Lightly sweetened whipped cream

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Butter 10-inch-diameter springform pan. Line bottom of pan with parchment round; butter parchment. Wrap 3 layers of heavy-duty foil around outside of pan, bringing foil to top of rim. Combine 1 cup water and sugar in small saucepan. Bring to boil over medium heat, stirring until sugar dissolves.

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees with the rack in the center of the oven. Butter a 9-inch cake pan (not a springform) and place a circle of parchment or possibly wax paper on the bottom, covering it completely. Butter the paper. Chop both the chocolates into fine pcs and set them aside. Combine the water with 1 c. of the sugar in a heavy 1-1/2-qt saucepan. Bring to a rapid boil over high heat and immediately add in the chocolate pcs, stirring till they are completely melted. Then add in the butter, piece by piece, stirring to heat it completely. Place the Large eggs and the remaining 1/3 c. sugar in either the bowl of an electric mixer or possibly a regular mixing bowl. For a cake with a crunchy crust: beat the Large eggs and sugar in the electric mixer till they have tripled in volume. For a smooth top (better for frosting): mix the Large eggs and sugar only till the sugar dissolves. Add in the chocolate/butter mix to the Large eggs and mix to incorporate completely. Don't OVERBEAT!-This causes nasty air bubbles. Spoon and scrape the mix into the prepared pan. Set the pan or possibly sturdy jelly-roll pan. Set both in the oven and pour warm water into the larger pan. Bake for 25-30 min. Let cold in the pan for 10 min and then run a sharp knife around the sides to release the cake. Cover with plastic wrap and unmold onto a cookie sheet. Invert a serving plate over the cake and flip it over, so the plate is on the bottom and the cake on top. Serve with either a chocolate ganache glaze or possibly a white chocolate sauce. ****Chocolate Ganache 1 c. heavy cream 10 ounce bittersweet chocolate, cut into small pcs Scald the cream. Add in the chocolate off the heat, and stir very gently till smooth. Cold slightly and pour over cake. ****White Chocolate Sauce 1 c. heavy cream 9 ounce Tobler Narcisse, cut into small pcs 1/2 Drambuie Scald the cream, then off the heat, add in the chocolate. If lowfat milk solid don't dissolve, process for a few second in a food processor or possibly blender. Add in the Drambuie.

FRENCH ALMOND-RUM CAKE | CHRISTOPHER KIMBALL’S MILK STREET
And though a finishing rum-spiked glaze is traditional, we felt that was a bit over the top. We preferred a lemon glaze, which brightened and lightened the richer flavors. Slivered almonds scattered on the surface reinforced the almond in the batter and added textural contrast. For a reliably moist cake, the French use plenty of almonds and rum.
