Mod de preparare
Pas cu pas
- 1
Melt the chopped chocolate in a double boiler over simmering water, or in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth. Set aside to cool slightly.
Aproximativ 5 min.
Nota bucătarului: Be careful not to overheat the chocolate, which can cause it to become grainy.
- 2
In a large bowl, use an electric mixer to beat the softened butter on medium-high speed until it is light and creamy.
Aproximativ 2 min.
- 3
Add the confectioners' sugar and salt to the butter. Beat on low speed to combine, then increase to medium-high and beat until fluffy.
Aproximativ 3 min.
Nota bucătarului: Scrape down the sides of the bowl once or twice to ensure everything is evenly mixed.
- 4
Add the egg yolks one at a time, beating well after each addition. Mix in the cooled melted chocolate and the strong coffee until just combined.
Aproximativ 3 min.
- 5
In a separate, clean bowl, beat the egg whites with clean beaters on high speed until stiff peaks form.
Aproximativ 4 min.
Nota bucătarului: Ensure the bowl and beaters are completely free of any fat or grease, which will prevent the whites from whipping properly.
- 6
Gently fold about one-third of the beaten egg whites into the chocolate mixture to lighten it.
Aproximativ 1 min.
- 7
Carefully fold in the remaining egg whites in two batches until just combined. Be careful not to overmix and deflate the frosting.
Aproximativ 2 min.
- 8
Using a long serrated knife, carefully slice the angel food cake horizontally into five even layers.
Aproximativ 5 min.
Nota bucătarului: Use a gentle sawing motion and rotate the cake as you cut to keep the layers even.
- 9
Place the bottom cake layer on a serving platter. Spread a portion of the chocolate frosting evenly over the top.
Aproximativ 2 min.
- 10
Top with the next cake layer and repeat the process until all layers are stacked.
Aproximativ 5 min.
- 11
Use the remaining frosting to cover the top and sides of the entire cake, smoothing it with an offset spatula.
Aproximativ 3 min.
- 12
Refrigerate the cake for at least 2.5 hours, or up to overnight, to allow the frosting to set and firm up before slicing and serving.
