Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 box chocolate cake mix, (both 15 ounce and 18.5 ounce work)
1 box (18.3 ounces) fudge brownie mix,
4 eggs, (room temperature)
1 ¼ cup water
1 cup vegetable oil
1 cup heavy whipping cream
1 bag (12 ounces) semi sweet chocolate morsels

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350°F. Prepare a bundt pan with bakers spray or use the butter/flour method.
  • Combine first five ingredients in a large bowl and whisk for 2 minutes or until lumps are mostly gone.
  • Pour batter into prepared bundt pan and bake for 50-55 minutes. Check at 45 minutes. A toothpick inserted should be removed with a few crumbs, not clean.
  • When done baking, remove cake and allow to cool in pan for up to five minutes. Carefully turn cake out onto a cooling rack and cool for 30 minutes more.
  • Place heavy whipping cream in a large microwave safe bowl and heat for about 2 minutes. You want the cream to be just boiling.
  • Carefully pour chocolate morsels into cream... it may rise up and bubble and this is ok.
  • Let sit for 5 minutes. Whisk the chocolate and cream until shiny and smooth, about 1 minute.
  • Pour over cooled cake and serve.

FLOURLESS CHOCOLATE BROWNIE CAKE WITH WHIPPED CREAM



Flourless Chocolate Brownie Cake with Whipped Cream image

If you're a fudgy brownie person, but crave a little more elegance, this is for you. It's deeply rich with cocoa and easy as pie -- or, really, much easier. It's not finicky in the way some flourless chocolate cake can be, and you can mask any mistakes (though there's not much to go wrong here) with a dusting of fine cocoa powder or powdered sugar. Dollop with whipped cream or creme fraiche when you serve.

Time 1h20m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 cup (2 sticks) (225 grams) unsalted butter, cut into small pieces, plus more for the pan
1/4 cup (60 milliliters) heavy cream
7 ounces (200 grams) 70 to 78 percent bittersweet chocolate, chopped
5 large eggs
1 cup (200 grams) sugar
1/2 cup (40 grams) Dutch-processed (or alkalized) cocoa powder, plus more for the pan and garnish
1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
1 cup (240 milliliters) heavy cream (See Cook's Note)
1 teaspoon sugar
Splash of pure vanilla extract

Steps:

  • For the flourless chocolate cake: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C). Butter the bottom and sides of an 8- or 9-inch (20- or 23-centimeter) springform pan and dust it with cocoa powder. Tap out any excess.
  • Heat the butter and cream in a medium saucepan over low heat. When the butter is melted, add the chopped chocolate and stir frequently until melted and smooth.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, sugar, cocoa powder, and salt until even and a bit frothy, whisking for 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in the melted chocolate mixture until smooth and even.
  • Transfer the batter to the prepared pan and bake until the cake is puffed and just set through, 35 to 40 minutes. Remove from the oven and let the cake cool for about 40 minutes. Run a knife around the edge and unmold the sides of the springform pan, then transfer the bottom of the pan to a plate or platter (don't try to remove the whole cake from the springform; it may crumble). Sift cocoa powder over the cake before serving.
  • For the whipped cream: If you are not whipping your own cream, you're missing out. Perfect, dollopable cream is an art form worth mastering. To do it: Whip the cream in a metal bowl with a whisk or electric beater until it just holds its shape. Fold in the sugar and vanilla. Test with a spoon -- it should slide right off but still hold some shape. Use a whisk to finish it off, whipping a few times by hand until it just holds soft peaks -- but no further: It should dollop lusciously over any cake or pie.
  • Serve the cake warm or at room temperature with the whipped cream.
