Saw this on Barefoot Contessa the other day and had to try it. Edges are like brownie, insides like moten chocolate. mmmmm Chocolate Cake Pudding. Ingredients:
• 1/2 pound (2 sticks) unsalted butter, plus extra for buttering the dish |
• 4 extra-large eggs, at room temperature |
• 2 cups sugar |
• 3/4 cup cocoa powder |
• 1/2 cup all-purpose flour |
• seeds scraped from 1 vanilla bean |
• 1 tablespoon framboise liqueur (raspberry liqueur - optiona, i used triple sec, cuz that was what i had)) |
• vanilla ice cream, for serving |
Directions:
1. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees.
2. Lightly butter a 2-quart (9 x 12 x 2-inch) oval baking dish.
3. Melt the butter and set aside to cool.
4. In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the eggs and sugar on medium-high speed for 5 to 10 minutes, until very thick and light yellow.
5. I don't have a paddle attachement...works fine without it)
6. Meanwhile, sift the cocoa powder and flour together and set aside.
7. When the egg and sugar mixture is ready, lower the speed to low and add the vanilla seeds, framboise (if using), and the cocoa powder and flour mixture.
8. Mix only until combined.
9. With the mixer still on low, slowly pour in the cooled butter and mix again just until combined.
10. Pour the brownie mixture into the prepared dish and place it in a larger baking pan.
11. Add enough of the hottest tap water to the pan to come halfway up the side of the dish and bake for exactly 1 hour.
12. A cake tester inserted 2 inches from the side will come out 3 quarters clean. (or toothpick)
13. The center will appear very under-baked; this dessert is between a brownie and a pudding.
14. Allow to cool and serve with vanilla ice cream.
