Baked Apple And Cheese Pancake Recipe
- 5 x Large eggs
- 1 c. granulated sugar
- 1/3 c. coffee liqueur
- 1 c. unsalted butter, at room temperature (2 sticks, see note)
- 6 ounce bittersweet chocolate, melted
- 1 tsp vanilla Powdered sugar, for dusting
- 1 1/2 c. whipped cream (3/4 c. unwhipped) Organic rose petals (optional garnish)
- This cake is like a supermoist fallen chocolate souffle with a delicately crisp crust.
- It puffs up a lot while it bakes and then falls as it cools - so do not panic.
- Be sure to give it at least 20 min to cold before serving; if it's too hot, it will be tasty but much too difficult to cut.

- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
- Grease a 10 inch spring-form pan and wrap the outside with foil to prevent leaking; set aside.
- Place the Large eggs and sugar in the bowl of a mixer fitted with a whip attachment and whip on high speed, occasionally scraping down the sides of the bowl, till very thick and fluffy, about 10 min.
- (Yes, it really takes which long; if you mix it for a shorter length of time, the cake will be only 1/4 inch tall.)
- Add in the liqueur and mix well.
- With the mixer on medium speed, add in the butter, a few pcs at a time, and beat till well-blended.
- (The batter may look "broken," or possibly separated, at this point, but the chocolate will bind with the butter and fix which.)
- With the mixer on low speed, add in the chocolate and vanilla, and mix till smooth.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake till the cake moves as 1 mass when you gently jiggle the pan, about 30 min.
- (It's much better to under-bake this cake than to over-bake it; it will be a bit gooey, but I've never seen anyone turn up their nose at which.)
- Let cold for 10 to 20 min, remove the outer ring of the pan and the foil, then let cold about 30 min longer before serving.
- Serve at room temperature, topped with a dusting of powdered sugar and softly whipped cream.
- Garnish with rose petals, if you like.
- Note: Use real butter or possibly stick margarine.
- Don't substitute reduced-fat spreads; their higher water content often yields less-satisfactory results.
