Instructions
.....to the history of the cake....
- My son wanted to "do" something to his work colleagues and bring a cake with a kick to work. So he searched the net for a recipe that promised pepper or chilli - with the dosage you could let your imagination or sadistic inclinations run free! ; -)) ..... a thank you to Rainbow, by the way, whose recipe we based on!
....to the dough....
- First, the dark chocolate is melted in pieces in a hot water bath. Then a few turns from the chilli mill are added - for me it was definitely 5 - depending on the degree of spiciness! Now put the whole thing aside and let it cool down.
- In the meantime, separate the eggs and beat the egg white with a pinch of salt to form egg whites - set aside. Mix the softened butter, sugar and eggs in another bowl until frothy. Squeeze the mandarins and add 4 tablespoons to our dough mixture. Likewise the now cooled chocolate. Mix everything together well.
- The spoon bisquits are now placed in a freezer bag and crumbled using a rolling pin. Mix in the cornstarch and baking powder and add everything to the dough.
- Finally, fold in the stiffly beaten egg whites and put everything into a greased springform pan. I baked the chocolate cake for about 35 minutes in a preheated oven at 160 °. Then let cool down well.
....the cast...
- For the first time I made the icing with chocolate and cream instead of couverture (thanks to Rainbow - tastes much better). Break the two types of chocolate back into pieces and melt them in a hot water bath. Stir in the cream and chili powder and season to taste.
- Pour over the cooled cake and sprinkle with e.g. coconut flakes, white chocolate sprinkles etc. I wish you bon appetite and a lot of feeling while "seasoning"! 🙂
