Recipe Introduction


From The Coeliac Society of Ireland - http://coeliac.ie/webboards/viewtopic.php?p=13912


List of Ingredients




300g dark chocolate (dairy free)
1 cup (250ml) orange juice
4 eggs separated
3/4 cup (165g) brown sugar
1 1/2 cups (165g) ground almond/meal
icing sugar/confectioners, for dusting

Recipe



Preheat oven to 160°C or 140°C fan-forced.

Grease with DF Margarine and line 22cm cake tin.

Melt chocolate with orange juice over bain marie or in short bursts in the microwave until smooth.

Whisk egg yolks together with sugar till pale and doubled in volume.

Fold in chocolate mixture and almond meal.

Whisk egg whites to soft peaks and fold into chocolate mixture.

Pour into prepared cake tin.

Place cake tin into a large baking dish and pour enough boiling water into the baking dish to come half way up the sides of the cake tin.

Bake for 50 minutes in preheated oven.

Remove from oven and refrigerate until cold.

Serve dusted with icing sugar.

David's Notes: This is a very rich truffle-style cake.
It is not supposed to be light and fluffy, but very rich and unctuous. It will keep in an airtight container up to 1 week.
