STEPS
INGREDIENTS
First put dry fruits into a pan and add some Brandy to soften them and to give the great flavour. Leave for 40 minutes, then dry
Beat the cold egg whites until soft picks. I have tuned it upside down to show how firm it isππ
Set them aside and in another bowl mix the butter, sugar and vanilla
Sieve the flour with the baking powder, mix
Now add the dry ingredients in three batches alternating with one cup of milk
The batter should look like this
Carefully fold in the whites
Now in a springform pan add half of the batter, then spread the filling
Cover it with the other half and take to the preheated oven 350F for about 35 minutes
Meanwhile lets make the glaze. Put the sugar, chocolate and water into a pan ant heat until chocolate and sugar melts
Take off the heat and add the butter.
In a separate bowl mix the yolks until pale, then carefully add the warm glaze
See how shiny it isβ¨β¨β¨
Take the cake out of the oven and ket it cool slightly.
Put on a glass to make it easier to spread the glaze, like in the picture. Then take to fridge for about an hour.
And our cake is done... Hope you'll enjoy itπππ
