香蕉咖啡慕斯巧克力蛋糕(Chocolate cake with coffee mousse and bananas (milk sandwich))



在网上看见这个蛋糕,觉得很惊艳。 巧克力,咖啡,香蕉,尽是我喜欢的东西。 Google翻译的波兰食谱烂得一塌糊涂,也只能连蒙带猜地做下来。 虽然色彩不如人家的好,但是味道却是相当赞的。

星期六晚上友人请吃饭,特别带了去做情人节的礼物。 朋友说蛋糕非常地香,只是不够甜。

这年头,人人对甜食唯恐避之不及,还有人嫌不够甜吗?

Divine Chocolate Mousse Cake

My friend Joe who is a pastry chef extrordinaire (in the Dominican Republic) gave me this recipe years ago. It became my Dad's favorite cake, and one he always asked me to bake for him on his Birthday. Sadly, Dad's no longer here to enjoy it, but we celebrate his life daily, and his Birthday each Septemember. That's as it should be, and exactly what we did today.

It's a very chocolatey cake with a mousse layer which adds to the silky smoothness. A little known trick of the trade, a way to make your cakes more robust with chocolate flavour, is to substitute cocoa powder for part of the flour. Such is the case with the Cocoa Génoise cake used in this recipe. Be gentle when removing your cake from the springform bottom. I usually use a pastry brush to spread the cake with some framboise, prior to spreading the mousse over the layers. Hope you enjoy it as much as Dad did.

one 9 inch Cocoa Génoise cake (recipe below)

Cocoa Génoise

  • 1/3 cup unsifted cake flour
  • 1/3 cup unsifted cocoa powder
  • 1 tbsp granulated sugar
  • 4 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 3 large eggs, at room temperature
  • 2 egg yolks, at room temperature
  • 2/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla

Position rack in lower third of oven and preheat to 350 degrees F. Generously grease a 9 x 1 1/4 inch round springform cake pan with solid shortening. Dust with all purpose flour, tilt to distribute and tap out the excess.

Pour the flour, cocoa and 1 tbsp of sugar into a triple sifter. Sift onto a sheet of waxed paper to distribute the ingredients evenly. Set aside.

Melt the butter in a 1 quart saucepan over low heat. Pour into a 1 1/2 quart mixing bowl and set aside.

Place the eggs and egg yolks in the bowl of a heavy duty mixer. Add the 2/3 cup sugar and whisk ingredients by hand to combine. Rest the bowl in a shallow pan, such as a 10 inch skillet, filled with 1 inch of tap water (120 degrees). To prevent the eggs from setting, whisk them continuously for about 30 seconds, or until the mixture has warmed to body temperature, taking care that it doesn't exceed 110 degrees. Rub a little between your thumb and forefinger; it should feel smooth, not granular.

Attach the bowl on the mixer and with the whisk attachment, whip the mixture on medium speed until it cools and thickens, appears to be pale in colour and resembles a whole egg meringue and triples or more in volume (3 to 4 minutes). Pour in the vanilla during the final moments of whipping.

Test to see if it's time to fold in the cocoa flour mixture by lifting the whisk. If some of the mixture falls back into the batter right away, continue whipping for a few more minutes or until the desired consistency is achieved.

Scoop one half of the mixture on a flexible metal icing spatula and sprinkle it over the top. Using a rubber spatula, fold it into the batter just until incorporated. Repeat again, folding until the flour has been absorbed. Gently pour about 1 cup of the batter into the melted butter, and with the rubber spatula, fold until combined. Return the butter mixture to the reserved batter and again fold to combine.

Gently pour the batter into the pan, taking care not to deflate the foam structure. With a rubber spatula, smooth the surface. Bake for 25 to 27 minutes or until the top springs back when touched, the sides begin to contract from the pan and the cake sounds spongy when tapped.

Place the cake on a rack to cool for 5 to 10 minutes. Then gently release the cake from pan and cook on a rack.

Yields One 9 x 1 1/4 inch round layer cake

Chocolate Mousse

  • 3 eggs, separated, at room temperature
  • 4 ounces semisweet chocolate
  • 1 1/2 sticks unsalted butter, room temperature
  • 2 tbsp unsifted cocoa powder
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar

Place the whites in the bowl of a mixer and the yolks in a small bowl. Place plastic wrap on the surface of the bowl over the yolks to prevent them from drying. Set aside.

Cut the chocolate into matchstick-sized pieces and place them in a 1 quart mixing bowl that fits snugly over another bowl half filled with tap water (120 degrees). When the chocolate is smooth and liquid, remove the bowl and set aside to cool.

In a 3 quart mixing bowl, work the butter with a rubber spatula until it is soft, malleable and close to the consistency of mayo. Stir in the cooled but still liquid chocolate with a rubber spatula until blended. Add the egg yolks, one at a time, and then the 2 tbsp cocoa until smooth and blended. Set aside.

Add the sugar to the egg whites and whisk the ingredients by hand to combine. Rest the bowl in a shallow pan, such as a 10 inch skillet, filled with 1 inch of hot tap water (120 degrees). Whisk the mixture until it is body temperature about 30 to 45 seconds.

Place the bowl on the mixer, and with the whisk attachment, whip it on medium speed until it is cool and white, stiff but shiny, and elastic peaks form (about 3 t0 4 minutes).

Scoop 1/3 of the meringue into the bowl with the chocolate mixture and fold to lighten it. Then fold in the remaining meringue until blended. Refrigerate for 4 hours.

To assemble the cake, cut the Cocoa Génoise horizontally into 2 equal layers, each about 5/8 inch thick. Be careful to prevent tearing of the layers. Place the bottom Génoise layer cut side up on the bottom of a springform pan. Spoon a layer of mousse over the top. Place the other layer on top of the mousse and gently press to distribute the filling. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate to firm the mousse.

When the mousse is firm, the cake may be glazed. To serve, carefully remove from springform pan onto serving plate. You may decorate with Cocoa Piping.

Chocolate Glaze

  • 2 ounces semisweet chocolate
  • 1 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 2 tbsp water

Chop the chocolate into matchstick sized pieces. Place the butter in a 1 quart mixing bowl. Add the chocolate, fit the bowl snugly over another bowl half filled with tap water (120 degrees) and stir until melted and smooth. Remove from the bottom container, take 2 tbsp water from it, add it to the chocolate mixture and stir until smooth.

Spread the mixture over the surface you wish to glaze whilst the glaze is warm and liquid.

Yields 1/4 cup

Cake yields 8 to 10 servings
