How To Make Chocolate Truffle Cake

 Hello and welcome to my new recipe


With me Oh pasta so whenever we have a
celebration at home the first thing we
do is head to a bakery to buy a decadent
cake our recipe today is going to solve
that problem when you are going to make
a celebration cake right at home so
today we are going to make a chocolate
truffle cake for that you will need 150
grams of all-purpose flour that is meda
25 grams of cocoa powder 1 teaspoon of
baking powder 1/2 teaspoon of baking
soda we have to set our dry ingredients
two times to incorporate more air in a
battle
we are going to Swift our dry
ingredients for the second time now that
our dry ingredients are ready let's move
on to the second step of the recipe for
that we will need 80 grams of butter I
am using salted butter in this I am
going to add 60 grams of sugar now we
are going to cream them together
once it becomes psyche pale in color we
are going to add five tablespoons of
condensed milk to it we have to beat it
together again
once it becomes smooth that means it's
ready now we need 125 ml of milk in that
I am going to add 1 TSP of vanilla
essence and 1 teaspoon of instant coffee
powder mix it together the addition of
coffee enhances the chocolate flavor now
we have to mix our wet and dry
ingredients in batches these are my dry
ingredients little bit of milk and just
fold it together
why we are mixing them in batches so
that they get mixed easily and you don't
have to stir too much stirring too much
makes a batter and cake done now we have
to put this batter in our prepared six
inch baking tin
I have already greased this with butter
and put a parchment paper at the bottom
now push the batter from the center to
the sides
now tap this on the table two times to
get rid of all the air bubbles this goes
in a preheated oven at 180 degrees for
30 minutes
now that a cake is in the oven let's
make a sugar syrup for it this sugar
syrup is going to make the cake more
soft and moist for this we'll need 3
spoons of sugar and 1/2 cup of water we
have to heat this together till the
sugar dissolves our sugar has dissolved
completely and this is ready we have to
let this cool completely you can add a
cinnamon stick or some orange peel to it
for added flavor our cake is ready let
it cool in the tin for 5 to 10 minutes
at 10 minutes ah now let's unmold the
cake take a knife and run it on the
sides
now take a plate cover the cake and
invert it slowly lift your chin up
remove the parchment paper and then our
cake is ready now let's flip our cake
once again
let it cool completely and then we moved
to assembling it now let's move on to
step number three that is making the
chocolate truffle icing for that I have
two cups of fresh cream here in a pot
and I am going to heat it switch the gas
off just before it comes to a boil now
add this cream to 4 cups of dark
chocolate that is 750 grams I am using
compound dark chocolate here you can use
any chocolate of your choice now let's
add this hot cream to a chocolate I am
adding two tablespoons of salted butter
to it for added shine let it sit for at
least two minutes and then stir it if
your chocolate has not melted completely
you can put it on a double boiler and
melt it so this should be the
consistency of our chocolate truffle
icing
just tastes heavenly now we have to let
this sit for at least three to four
hours for it to thicken up now since we
have baked this cake in a very small tin
that is six inches cracks and domes are
a normal feature so don't worry about it
we are going to cut this off and level
the cake you will need a serrated knife
to cut the layers of your cake keep your
knife straight and slowly rotate the
kick
now I am cutting the second layer
you
we have cut a cake into two layers here
is the first layer and this is the
second layer now I am going to soak the
second layer with a sugar syrup
our truthful icing has thickened up and
now I am going to put it on a layer
starting with two tablespoons now with a
spatula start spreading it
now I am going to transfer the first
layer on the cake and soak it with sugar
syrup if your cake is crumbly and it
falls apart don't worry you can always
patch it up this is a really very
forgiving cake now I am going to soak
this layer with some more sugar syrup
now let's take some more truffle and
start icing a cake
now we have just crumb coated our cake
that is we have got all the crumbs of
the cake and made a smooth finish now we
have to keep it in the fridge for 10
minutes and then we will do our final
finish so it's been 10 minutes and now
it's time to give the final finish to
our cake I have put a chocolate truffle
but 10 seconds in the microwave to get
the shine back I have a bench scraper
which I am going to use to smoothen the
sides of the cake if you don't have one
you can use the back of your knife
now you smoothen the top by taking the
sides insight because chocolate truffle
is a thick and sticky icing I have put
the cake in the fridge for 10 minutes I
have put the truffle in the microwave
for 30 seconds and it has become liquid
again and shiny too now I'm going to
pour this on a cake now without touching
it too much just
shake the cake to get a smooth talk now
it's time to decorate our cake if you
have had any trouble transferring the
cake from your working table to your
cake stand
you can always pipe your thinkin -
around it and cover it up now we are
going to make swirls on a cake using the
star tip nozzle
now I'm adding some white chocolate
sprinkles on top so our rich decadent
chocolate truffle cake is ready which
you can enjoy in your next house party
