In the series of chocolates, I am presenting today a very unique chocolate dish “CHOCOLATE STOUT BUNDT CAKE”

TIMES REQUIRE:

HANDS-ON TIME:  20 mins

TOTAL TIME:  2 hrs 40 mins

SERVES: 12

INGREDIENTS: 

·         One cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter and unsweetened cocoa powder, for the Bundt pan

·         Two and a half cups all-purpose flour spooned and leveled

·         ¾ teaspoon baking soda

·         ½ teaspoon kosher salt

·         ¾ cup stout beer (such as Guinness)

·         12 ounces semisweet chocolate, chopped

·         3 large eggs

·         One cup granulated sugar

·         One cup packed dark brown sugar

·         ½ cup sour cream

·         ½ cup heavy cream

INSTRUCTIONS:

·         At 350° F heat up the oven. Butter a 12-cup Bundt pan and dust with the cocoa powder.

·         Whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt in a medium bowl.

·         Combine the butter and stout in a small saucepan. Melt the butter and add 8 ounces of the chocolate, and whisk until smooth.

·         Beat the eggs and sugars on medium-high until fluffy. Beat in the chocolate mixture and sour cream. Reduce speed to low and gradually mix in the flour mixture until just combined (do not overmix).

·         Get a prepared pan and pour the mixture into it and bake until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs attached, 45 to 55 minutes. Let cool 30 minutes in the pan, then invert onto a rack to cool completely.

·         In a small saucepan, bring the heavy cream just to a boil. Remove from heat, add the remaining 4 ounces of chocolate, and let sit 5 minutes. Whisk until smooth. Set the cooling rack with the cake over a baking sheet. Drizzle the cake with the glaze and let set before serving.

·         Mix everything well so that there should be no lumps in the cake batter.

·         Pour the cake batter into the prepared cake pan. Tap the sides of the cake pan so that the extra air bubbles are let out.

·         Bake the cake in a preheated oven for 200 degrees Celsius/392 degrees Fahrenheit for 35 to 40 mins.

·         For baking in a convection mode of a microwave oven, preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius/356 degrees Fahrenheit for 15 minutes. Then bake the cake at 180 degrees Celsius /356 degrees Fahrenheit for the 30 to 35 minutes.

·         Use knife to check the cake cook well or not, it should come out clean.

·         If the knife is sticky, then place the cake bake in the oven and continue to bake for some more minutes.

·         The cake should be cool completely before frosting.
