Merlot & Dark Chocolate Cake
Merlot & Dark Chocolate Cake
Cake:
1 stick + 1 tablespoon unsalted butter, softened
2/3 cup superfine sugar
2 medium eggs, lightly beaten
1/4 cup + 1 tablespoon red wine (Merlot), room temperature
1 cup self rising flour
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1 teaspoon Ghirardelli unsweetened cocoa powder
2 1/4 ounces Ghirardelli chocolate 60 percent cacao
Wine Syrup:
1/4 cup water
7 teaspoons superfine sugar
1/2 cup red wine (Merlot), room temperature
Glaze:
8 ounces redcurrant jelly
Decorating:
1 medium egg white for decorating, optional
Fresh grapes for decorating, optional
Superfine sugar for decorating, optional
1 3/4 ounces Ghirardelli chocolate 60 percent cacao for decorating, optional
Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. Grease and flour an 8-inch round cake pan.
Cream together the butter and 2/3 cup sugar until pale and fluffy, then add eggs a little at a time, beating well between each addition. Add the wine and mix well.
Sift the flour, cinnamon, cloves, and 1 teaspoon Ghirardelli cocoa powder together. Sift again. Fold the dry ingredients a spoonful at a time into the butter mixture. Grate 2 1/4 ounce of the Ghirardelli chocolate, then fold into the butter mixture.
Place in a cake pan and level the top. Bake in the center of the oven for 35 minutes, until the cake is well risen and a tester comes out clean. Cool in pan for 20 minutes and then invert onto plate and let cool completely.
Prepare wine syrup by boiling 1/4 cup water and 7 teaspoons sugar in a small pan, and then stir in the1/2 cup of red wine. Fill the cleaned caked pan with the syrup and place the cooled cake back into the cake pan. Warm syrup will quickly absorb into the cake. Once the syrup has been absorbed, reverse the cake on to the cake plate. Carefully remove pan. Cool cake.
Prepare glaze by bringing jelly to a rolling boil in a small pan. Remove from heat and then brush hot jelly over the cake. Let the jelly set, then repeat.
For decorating, use the remaining dark chocolate for decorating cake. Optional: use sugared fresh grapes for decorating cake; do this by brushing fruit with beaten egg white and dusting with superfine sugar.
