CHOCOLATE ORANGE CAKE RECIPE - BBC FOOD



Chocolate orange cake recipe - BBC Food image

A simple all-in-one chocolate orange cake, is covered with an indulgent chocolate ganache. Deceptively easy to make and a treat for any occasion. If you are short of time to decorate the cake, simply melt the chocolate into the cream as below, then use around a quarter to fill the cake and the rest to cover; creating swirly patterns with the palette knife rather than going for the more-time consuming smooth effect. For this recipe you will need two 20cm/8in loose-based sandwich tins.

Provided by Justine Pattison

Prep Time 30 minutes

Cook Time 1 hours

Yield Serves 12–14

Number Of Ingredients 13

75g/2¾oz cocoa powder
6 tbsp just-boiled water
2 medium oranges, well-scrubbed, finely grated zest and 2 tbsp juice only
225g/8oz unsalted butter, cubed and softened, plus extra for greasing
225g/8oz caster sugar
4 large free-range eggs
225g/8oz self-raising flour
1 tsp baking powder
½ orange, well-scrubbed
25g/1oz caster sugar
300ml/½ pint double cream
300g/10½oz dark chocolate (about 70% cocoa solids), broken into roughly 1cm/½in pieces
2–3 tbsp semi-skimmed milk

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 190C/170C Fan/Gas 5. Grease and line two 20cm/8in loose-based sandwich tins with baking paper.
  • Mix 50g/1¾oz of the cocoa powder with the just-boiled water to make a smooth, thick paste. Stir in 2 tablespoons orange juice.
  • In a food processor or freestanding mixer, add the butter, sugar, eggs, flour, baking powder, remaining cocoa powder, orange zest and the cocoa paste and pulse or beat until well combined, thick and creamy. Do not over-blend or the cake will be tough rather than light. Spoon the mixture evenly into the prepared tins and smooth the surface. Bake on the same shelf in the centre of the oven for about 25 minutes, or until well risen and just beginning to shrink back from the sides of the tin.
  • Remove the tins from the oven and leave to cool for 5 minutes before turning out on to a wire rack. Peel off the baking paper and leave to cool completely.
  • To make the candied orange zest, use a vegetable peeler to peel long, wide strips off the half orange, avoiding the white pith. Cut the zest into long thin matchsticks and place in a small saucepan with the sugar and 50ml/2fl oz water. Bring to a simmer and cook for about 5 minutes, or until the zest is softened and the sugar syrup is well reduced and lightly coating the zest.
  • Line a small tray or plate with baking paper and use a fork to lift the orange zest from the syrup and drop onto the paper, keeping the strands separated. Leave to set for at least 1 hour before using to top the cake.
  • To make the chocolate icing, gently heat the cream in a medium non-stick saucepan until hot but not quite simmering, stirring occasionally, then pour over the chocolate pieces. Stir once and leave to stand for 5 minutes. Stir the melted chocolate into the cream just enough to combine – don’t over-stir or the mixture could become oily. Leave to cool for 5 minutes.
  • Place one of the sponges on a wire rack over a large plate or tray (to catch any excess icing so it can be reused). Spread a quarter of the chocolate icing thickly over the surface and top with the second sponge. Mix a tablespoon of the milk with another quarter of the chocolate icing (about 135g/5oz) in a small bowl until smooth. Using a palette knife, spread the whole cake thinly with the thinned chocolate icing, filling in the areas where the two cakes meet. Place in the fridge for about 40 minutes to set. (This layer will help the rest of the icing cover the cake more smoothly and doesn’t need to be perfectly neat.)
  • Once the first layer of icing has set, stir the remaining 2 tbsp milk into the remaining chocolate icing, until smooth and shiny. Spread the icing all over the top of the cake and down the sides as smoothly as possible using a palette knife. Leave for 2–3 hours to set and then carefully transfer to a cake stand or plate and top with the candied orange zest. (You can also leave it to cool a little and then create a swirly rather than a smooth topping on the cake.)

Cook Time 2 hours

Yield Serves 10-12

Number Of Ingredients 12

150g/5½oz self-raising flour

50g/1¾oz raisins
50g/1¾oz walnut halves, roughly broken
4 tsp ground mixed spice
1 tsp bicarbonate of soda
3 large free-range eggs
100ml/3½fl oz sunflower oil, plus extra for greasing
3 tbsp semi-skimmed milk
300g/10½oz carrots, coarsely grated
150g/5½oz full-fat cream cheese
1 medium orange, finely grated zest only

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 180C/160C Fan/Gas 4. Grease and line the base of a 20cm/8in springform cake tin with baking parchment.
  • Put the flour, almonds, raisins, walnuts, mixed spice and bicarbonate of soda in a large bowl and mix thoroughly. Make a well in the centre.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs, oil and milk together and stir in the grated carrot. Add the egg mixture to the dry ingredients, stirring to form a thick batter.
  • Pour into the prepared tin and spread to the sides. Bake in the centre of the oven for 35 minutes, or until the cake is well risen and a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean. Leave to cool in the tin.
  • Take the cake out of the tin and peel off the lining paper. Put the cake on a board or plate.
  • To make the frosting, stir the cheese and orange zest together. Spread evenly over the cake.
  • Cut into small wedges to serve.
