The Caprese Cake is a traditional dessert from the island of Capri, off the coast of Southern Italy. It is made with almonds, chocolate, and butter, giving it a decadent richness that is sure to impress your guests. The Bimby makes quick work of the preparation, allowing you to spend more time enjoying the company of your guests.
To make the Caprese Cake, you will need the following ingredients:
– 200g of dark chocolate
– 200g of unsalted butter
– 200g of almond flour
– 200g of caster sugar
– 5 eggs
– A pinch of salt
– Powdered sugar, for dusting
Begin by preheating your oven to 180°C. Next, melt the dark chocolate and unsalted butter together in a heatproof bowl over a pot of simmering water. Once melted, remove from heat and set aside to cool.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the almond flour, caster sugar, and a pinch of salt. Add the eggs, one at a time, whisking well after each addition. Finally, add the cooled chocolate and butter mixture and fold it in until well combined.
Pour the batter into a greased 20cm cake tin and bake for 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean. Remove from the oven and let cool completely before removing from the tin.
Dust the top of the cooled cake with powdered sugar before serving. The Bimby makes it easy to get a perfect consistency of all ingredients.
