Lindt Cake
  • Difficulty: Easy
  • Cost: Budget-friendly
  • Preparation time: 15 Minutes
  • Cooking time: 30 Minutes
  • Portions: 6Servings
  • Cooking methods: Oven

Ingredients

  • 3 1/2 tbsp Butter
  • 3.5 oz Dark chocolate
  • 3 Eggs
  • 3/4 cup Sugar
  • 3/4 cup All-purpose flour (or rice flour for celiacs)
  • 3 1/2 tbsp Butter
  • 7 oz Lindt milk chocolate
  • 7/8 cup Heavy cream

Tools

  • Special tart pan

Preparation

  • To make the Lindt cake, melt the butter and dark chocolate in a bain-marie and allow them to melt completely. Stir from time to time to obtain a smooth mixture.

  • In a bowl, beat the eggs with the sugar; when the mixture is frothy and homogeneous, add the flour and the butter-and-chocolate mixture and mix well.

  • Butter and flour a 9.5-inch pan (I recommend using the special tart pan), pour in the batter and bake in a preheated oven at 320°F for about 30 minutes; perform the toothpick test.

  • Meanwhile, prepare the glaze: in a small saucepan melt the butter with the milk chocolate and the cream. Stir continuously until you obtain a smooth, glossy glaze.

  • When the cake is baked, remove it from the oven, invert it onto a serving plate and cover it with the prepared glaze. Let rest in the fridge for at least 2 hours. Enjoy!

  • You can try making the ganache with other types of chocolate as well, for example dark, white or caramel, according to your taste.
