Инструкции
- To make layers, Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Grease 9-inch circular pans and line bottoms with parchment paper.
- In a small heavy sauce pan, melt chocolate with water at a low heat stirring often. Cool to lukewarm.
- In mixer, beat yolks, 2/3 cup of sugar and salt until pale, about 5 mins. Stir in melted chocolate until combined.
- In another large bowl, beat 12 egg whites until they hold stiff peaks. Add remaining sugar and beat until the whites just hold stiff peaks.
- Carefully fold in the whites into the melted chocolate mix. You are ready to spread mixture into the four pans. Try and fill them as evenly as possible.
- Bake until the cake has puffed and the top is dry to the touch (about 15-18 mins. depending upon your oven). Rotate the pans once to ensure it bakes evenly. Once done, cool the cakes on a rack about 10 mins. then carefully release cakes. Take a large piece of max paper and place over the cake then carefully flip over onto cookie sheet. Best results, place cakes in the freezer about 1 ½ hours to ensure firmness for assembly.
- The Filling/Frosting
- I make his just prior to getting may cake ready for assembly. In a clean bowl beat cream, powdered sugar and Grand Mariner (or substitute) until it holds just stiff peaks.
- Take first layer (out of freezer) and arrange on your cake plate. Spread 1/4 of the filling over layer, grab next layer and repete.
- Keep refrigerated until ready to serve (takes about 2 hours or so in the fridge for layers to completely thawed).
- Grate Dark chocolate with a vegetable peeler to add chocolate curls on top.
