Tiramisu Cake With Berries
- 1/2 cup butter
- 2 tsp instant coffee powder, plus 1/4 cup extra
- 3.5 oz dark chocolate, chopped
- 1 2/3 cups granulated sugar
- 1 cup self-rising flour, sifted
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour, sifted
- 3 tbsp cocoa powder
- 1 None egg
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 tbsp marsala wine
- 9 oz mascarpone cheese
- 1 1/4 cups heavy cream
- 4 oz raspberries
- Preheat oven to 325u0b0F. Grease a 9 inch square cake pan and line base with parchment paper.
- In a medium saucepan, combine butter, 2 tsp instant coffee powder, 3/4 cup hot water, chocolate and 1 cup sugar. Stir over low heat until chocolate melts. Transfer to a large bowl and let cool for 5 mins.
- In 2 batches, whisk in flour and 2 tbsp cocoa powder. Whisk in egg and vanilla extract. Transfer to prepared pan and bake for 40 mins. Let cake cool in pan for 5 mins then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Meanwhile, place 1 2/3 cups water in a medium saucepan. Add remaining sugar and coffee. Stir over low heat until sugar dissolves. Bring to a boil. Boil, without stirring, for 5 mins. Remove from heat and stir in marsala. Let cool. Reserve 1/3 cup coffee syrup.
- Split cake in 1/2 horizontally. Place halves, crust-side up, on a tray. Brush with remaining coffee syrup. Cover and refrigerate for 3 hours, or overnight.
- Cut each cake 1/2 into 8 equal pieces. Whisk together mascarpone, cream and reserved coffee syrup in a medium bowl until mixture thickens slightly.
- Arrange 8 serving dishes on a flat work surface. Place a piece of cake in each dish. Distribute 1/2 the mascarpone mixture over top. Repeat layers, using remaining cake and mascarpone mixture. Top with raspberries and dust with remaining cocoa powder.
