- 1 .. Gateau Chocolat
- 2 Eggs
- 20 grams Sugar
- 15 grams Cocoa powder
- 15 grams Cake flour
- 40 grams Margarine
- 50 grams Milk chocolate (I used Meiji milk chocolate)
- 50 grams Heavy cream
- 15 grams Walnuts
- Crumble dough.
- Chop up the cold margarine into small pieces, then use a fork to lightly mix it up into the sugar, flour, and cocoa powder.
- Place into the refrigerator to chill.
- Once it becomes cool and hard, use your hands to lightly mix it so that it becomes crumbly, then chill again.
- Put the chocolate and margarine in a heatproof bowl and heat in the microwave for one minute to melt.
- Mix in the egg yolks.
- Whip the egg whites, adding the sugar as you go.
- Continue to whip until stiffened.
- Add the heavy cream and sifted dry ingredients into Step 3 and mix.
- Divide the meringue into three parts and mix in one part at a time into Step 5.
- Use a whisk for the first two parts, then use a rubber spatula to fold the third part in.
- Add the chopped walnuts and mix.
- Pour the batter into a cake pan greased with margarine.
- Drop the pan onto a table a few times to break air bubbles in the batter.
- Top with the crumbles from Step 2.
- Put leftover crumbles in the refrigerator to use next time.
- Bake in an oven at 180C for 30 minutes.
- I dusted powdered sugar over a plate topped with a kiri-e (Japanese paper-cutting art) to make a decoration on the plate, then put the cake on top.
