How to Make a Dark Chocolate Truffle Foam Cake
Ingredients
225 g dark chocolate, chopped
1 cup thick cream
4 large eggs
1/4 cup sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
A pinch of salt
Step by Step Instructions
Melt the chocolate: Start by melting the dark chocolate in a bain-marie or in the microwave until it is smooth. Be patient and let it cool slightly so that it does not cook the eggs afterwards.
Mount the cream: In a clean bowl, whisk the whole liquid cream until firm peaks are obtained. This step is crucial to aerate and lighten your foam.
Beat the eggs: In another bowl, beat the eggs, sugar, vanilla extract and salt until the mixture becomes sparkling and pale. This will give volume and softness to your foam.
Mixing chocolate and eggs: Gently incorporate the melted chocolate into the egg mixture. It is important to proceed gradually to avoid dropping the eggs.
Gently incorporate the whipped cream into the chocolate-egg mixture. A creamy and aerial texture is thus obtained, so pleasant to the touch.
Place the cake in the refrigerator: Pour the foam into a buttered cake pan. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours until it is taken. This step is essential to achieve the desired texture.
Serve and taste: Once taken, cut the cake into slices, serve it fresh and enjoy the rich taste of dark chocolate!
