Time 1h15m

Yield 18

Number Of Ingredients 18

1 cup butter
1 cup water
4 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
½ cup buttermilk
1 teaspoon baking soda
2 eggs, beaten
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 cups white sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
½ teaspoon salt
½ cup butter
4 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
⅓ cup buttermilk
4 cups confectioners' sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup chopped pecans
1 pinch salt

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch pan. In a saucepan, melt 1 cup of butter. Stir in 1 cup water and 4 tablespoons cocoa powder. Remove from heat and set aside.
  • In a medium bowl, dissolve the baking soda in 1/2 cup of buttermilk. Stir in the eggs and vanilla. Mix in the cooled cocoa mixture.
  • In a large bowl, sift together the flour, sugar, cinnamon and salt. Make a well in the center and pour in the cocoa buttermilk mixture. Stir until blended. Pour batter into prepared pan. Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. Ice the cake with Buttermilk Pecan Icing while it's still warm.
  • For the icing: In a large saucepan, melt 1/2 cup butter with 4 tablespoons cocoa. Stir in 1/3 cup buttermilk, and heat until almost boiling. Stir in confectioners' sugar, vanilla, salt and pecans. Remove from heat. Mix well and pour over warm cake.

SOKOLATOPITA (GREEK CHOCOLATE CAKE)



Sokolatopita (Greek Chocolate Cake) image

Not really a 'pie' at all, but because it's flat, it's called a 'pita' in Greek. Here's the version I make. I like it cause it's quick and can satisfy any chocoholic.

Time 32m

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

250 g butter (9 oz)
1 cup boiling water
1 1/2 cups sugar
3/4 cup cocoa powder
1/4 cup brandy (I use Metaxa, but any brandy is fine)
2 teaspoons vanilla
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 dash salt
5 eggs
250 g milk chocolate or 10 ounces milk chocolate
200 g heavy cream or 8 ounces heavy cream

Steps:

  • In a medium saucepan combine all chocolate syrup ingredients EXCEPT FOR brandy and vanilla, and cook until sugar is melted. Remove from heat and whisk in brandy and vanilla. Remove 1 cup of the chocolate syrup and set aside. Proceed with recipe.
  • Preheat oven to 180C/355°F Butter and flour a 13 x 9 " baking dish (I use a pyrex one).
  • Whisk flour and eggs in a large bowl. While whisking, slowly dribble in chocolate syrup remaining in pot. Make sure everything is incorporated. Pour into prepared baking pan and bake for exactly 20 minutes. Remove, cut in middle lengthwise and then crosswise into a total of 10-12 pieces. Pour reserved chocolate syrup over and cool. (the cake will not have risen much, it is low, dense and fudgy).
  • Make ganache: Break up chocolate into small pieces and place in small bowl. In a small saucepan, scald cream. Pour hot cream over broken-up chocolate and whisk until chocolate has fully melted into the cream. Allow to cool for about 1/2 an hour, whisking occasionally, and pour over sokolatopita.
  • Serving the sokolatopita warm elicits moans of delight from eaters that sound -- well, make it and find out for yourself.
