PASSOVER FUDGE GLAZE



Passover Fudge Glaze image

This recipe uses a vegan cooking technique: pureeing nuts and water, then straining the liquid to make a milk substitute. This glaze was developed for our Chocolate Torte.

Categories     Mixer     Chocolate     Dessert     Passover     Valentine's Day     Walnut     Kosher     Kosher for Passover     Kidney Friendly     Vegetarian     Pescatarian     Peanut Free     Soy Free

Yield Makes about 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

3/4 cup sugar (if using half semisweet and half sweet chocolate) or 3/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar (if using all semisweet chocolate)
6 ounces fine-quality chocolate, preferably half dark sweet (sometimes labeled German's Sweet Chocolate), and half semisweet, but all semisweet is also delicious; cut into small pieces
6 large eggs, separated
6 ounces shelled walnuts (1 3/4 to 2 cups)
3 tablespoons matzoh meal
Optional accompaniments: Passover Confectioners' Sugar (recipe below) or Chocolate Icing (recipe below); heavy cream, freshly whipped to soft drifts and barely or very lightly sweetened; or vanilla ice cream
Optional garnish: walnut halves
Chocolate icing:
6 tablespoons (3/4 stick) unsalted butter or margarine
6 ounces fine-quality semisweet or bittersweet chocolate, cut into small pieces

Steps:

  • Have all ingredients at room temperature.
  • Line the bottom of an 8-inch square cake pan or a 9-inch springform pan with parchment or wax paper.
  • Preheat the oven to 350°F.
  • In a heavy-bottomed 2-or 3-quart saucepan, combine 1/2 cup of the sugar and 1/2 cup water and bring to a boil, stirring constantly over medium heat. Continue boiling and stirring until all the grains of sugar have completely dissolved and the mixture forms a simple syrup. Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the chocolate until melted and smooth. Set aside to cool.
  • In a large bowl, beat the egg yolks with an electric mixer until light and thickened, about 4 minutes. Grind the walnuts with the remaining sugar and the matzoh meal in a food processor using the pulse motion and stir into the egg yolks. Add the cooled chocolate mixture and combine thoroughly.
  • Using clean beaters, beat the egg whites in another bowl until they hold stiff peaks. Gradually fold the whites into the chocolate-walnut mixture, incorporating them gently but thoroughly so that no whites are visible. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 30 to 40 minutes, until puffed and almost set but still a little gooey in the center. A wooden toothpick inserted 1 inch from the edge should come out clean.
  • Remove the pan from the oven and let cool on a rack. When completely cool, unmold the cake by running a thin-bladed knife around the edges of the cake to release it from the pan (or release the springform); invert onto a platter. Peel off the parchment paper. Serve the torte at room temperature.
  • If desired, lightly dust with Passover confectioners' sugar. For a lovely, simple presentation, place a doily or a stencil-handmade by you or, even better, your children-over the torte, then sprinkle with the sugar. Carefully remove the doily or stencil.
  • Or glaze with the chocolate icing. Lay long strips of wax paper or foil on a cake plate or serving platter and place the cake on top. Pour the glaze over the top of the cake, letting it drip down the sides. Using a spatula, evenly spread the glaze over the top and sides. Now, pull out and discard the paper strips or foil strips--the plate will be clean and ready for serving. If you'd like, garnish with a few walnut halves attractively placed in the center of the cake. Refrigerate the cake for about an hour to set the glaze, but bring it to room temperature before serving.
  • The plain or frosted torte is heavenly with generous dollops of whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.
  • Passover Confectioners’ Sugar:
  • In a blender, mini-food processor, or clean coffee grinder, whirl 1 cup minus 1/2 tablespoon regular granulated sugar until it is powdery. Place in a small bowl and stir in 1/2 teaspoon potato starch. Sift before using. (Recently commercial Passover confectioners' sugar, made without cornstarch, has appeared in some stores with large kosher-for-Passover sections. If available, by all means use it here.)
  • Chocolate Icing:
  • Melt the butter or margarine slowly in a heavy saucepan over very low heat. When half is melted, gradually whisk in the chocolate, stirring well as it melts. After all the chocolate has been added, stir in 2 tablespoons water and beat well until the glaze is completely smooth. Let the mixture cool about 5 minutes to thicken slightly.

PASSOVER CHOCOLATE TORTE



Passover Chocolate Torte image

Passover recipes are always full of beaten egg whites. The first few Passovers I was married I didn't have an electric mixer kosher for Passover, and I would beat those egg whites by hand. It gave me a really good workout each year, considering how many egg whites you can beat over the 7/8 day holiday. After a few years I got smart and finally bought an electric mixer. I stopped getting my workout, and started baking more cakes. I always gain weight over the holiday, sigh...

Categories     Dessert

Time 1h5m

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

1/2 cup margarine
8 ounces semisweet chocolate, chopped
5 eggs, separated
3/4 cup white sugar
1 cup ground almonds

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Line the bottom and sides of a 9 inch springform pan with foil.
  • Grease the foil.
  • Melt the margarine and chocolate over low heat or in the microwave.
  • Stir until smooth and let cool.
  • In a medium-size mixing bowl, beat the egg whites until stiff, about about 2 minutes.
  • In a separate bowl, beat together the yolks and sugar until thick and pale, about 1 minute.
  • Blend in the chocolate mixture and stir in the almonds.
  • Fold in the beaten whites, 1/3 at a time, into the chocolate until no streaks of white remain.
  • Scrape into prepared pan.
  • Place an 8 inch baking pan with 1 inch of water in it on the bottom rack of the oven (to make the torte more moist).
  • Bake the torte on center rack at 350 degrees F for 45 to 50 minutes, or until sides begin to pull away from pan and top is set in center.
  • Cover the torte loosely with foil for the last 20 minutes of baking.
  • Note: Don't worry if the cake cracks because the top will be on the bottom later.
  • Cool on wire rack for 10 minutes and then carefully remove sides of pan.
  • Invert onto a serving plate and cool completely.
  • You can top with whipping cream or dust with confectioner's sugar if you want.

CHOCOLATE FUDGE TORTE



Chocolate Fudge Torte image

Categories     Cake     Mixer     Chocolate     Dessert     Bake     Passover     Kid-Friendly     Kosher     Bon Appétit     Vegetarian     Pescatarian     Peanut Free     Tree Nut Free     Soy Free     Small Plates

Yield Serves 8 to 10

Number Of Ingredients 18

Frosting
10 ounces bittersweet (not unsweetened) or semisweet chocolate, chopped
3/4 cup sugar
3/4 cup (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted pareve margarine, diced
3 large eggs, beaten to blend
1/2 cup liquid nondairy creamer
Pinch of coarse salt
Cake
1 1/2 cups sugar
1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
6 tablespoons matzo cake meal
2 tablespoons potato starch
5 large eggs, separated
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1/4 cup liquid nondairy creamer
Chocolate shavings (optional)
Fresh mint leaves (optional)

Steps:

  • For Frosting:
  • Combine all ingredients in heavy large saucepan. Whisk over medium heat until chocolate melts and mixture is smooth and just begins to bubble, about 8 minutes. Refrigerate until just thick enough to spread, stirring occasionally, about 1 1/2 hours.
  • Meanwhile, prepare cake:
  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Line 15 1/2x10 1/2x1-inch baking sheet with foil, leaving overhang. Grease foil. Sift 1/2 cup sugar, cocoa powder, cake meal and potato starch into medium bowl.
  • Combine egg whites and salt in large bowl. Using handheld electric mixer, beat whites until soft peaks form. Gradually add 1/2 cup sugar; beat until stiff but not dry. Using same beaters, beat yolks and 1/2 cup sugar in another large bowl until thick, about 2 minutes. Gradually beat in oil, then nondairy creamer. Add dry ingredients; beat just until blended. Fold whites into yolk mixture in 3 additions.
  • Spread batter in prepared pan. Bake until tester inserted into center comes out dry and cake feels firm to touch, about 20 minutes. Cool cake in pan on rack. Freeze cake just until firm, about 30 minutes.
  • Using foil as aid, lift cake onto work surface. Cut cake crosswise into 3 rectangles, each about 5x10 inches. Slide large spatula under 1 cake rectangle; transfer to platter. Spread 2/3 cup frosting over. Top with second layer. Spread 2/3 cup frosting over. Top with third layer. Spread very thin layer of frosting over top and sides of cake to coat thinly and anchor crumbs. Refrigerate 15 minutes to set thin coat of frosting. Spread remaining frosting decoratively over cake. Refrigerate until cold, about 4 hours. (Can be made 3 days ahead. Cover loosely with foil; keep refrigerated.)
  • Cover top of cake with chocolate shavings and garnish with mint, if desired. Cut crosswise into slices and serve.

Number Of Ingredients 8

8 ounces bittersweet (not unsweetened) or semisweet chocolate, chopped

8 large egg yolks
1 cup plus 1/3 cup sugar
5 large egg whites
Paper doily
Fresh raspberries (optional)
Raspberry Sauce

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Line bottom of 9-inch-diameter springform pan with 2 3/4-inch-high sides with parchment paper. Stir chocolate and margarine in heavy medium saucepan over low heat until melted and smooth. Remove from heat. Cool until lukewarm.
  • Using electric mixer, beat yolks and 3/4 cup sugar in large bowl until pale and very thick, about 4 minutes. Add chocolate mixture in 2 additions and beat until well blended. Using clean dry beaters, beat egg whites in another large bowl until foamy. Gradually add 1/4 cup sugar and beat until whites are stiff but not dry. Fold 1/3 of whites into chocolate mixture. Fold in remaining whites in 2 additions. Transfer batter to prepared pan.
  • Bake torte until crust forms on top and tester inserted into center comes out with some moist batter and some moist crumbs still attached, about 55 minutes (top may crack). Run small sharp knife around torte to loosen. Cool in pan on rack (torte will fall and crack). Remove pan sides. Invert torte onto platter. (Can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cover with cake dome and store at room temperature.)
  • Grind 1/3 cup sugar in blender until fine powder forms. Place doily atop torte. Sift ground sugar over doily; gently remove doily. Garnish torte with raspberries, if desired. Serve with Raspberry Sauce.

FLOURLESS CHOCOLATE-WALNUT TORTE



Flourless Chocolate-Walnut Torte image

Luscious flourless chocolate cake is a staple dessert for people who follow a gluten-free diet. Many of these cakes rely on butter for richness, but the secret to this dairy-free recipe is coconut oil. If you serve the cake chilled, it tastes even fudgier. Martha made this recipe on "Martha Bakes" episode 810.

1 1/4 cups sugar
4 large eggs, room temperature
