Gâteau au chocolat :: Classic Chocolate Cake [Video]

Image
  It is raining gently today. It's dark, so I feel like I'm sinking into a depressed mode for some reason. In times like these, a piece of sweet cake often helps. Living in a remote country where only 6 buses pass a day, I can't go out right away to eat a piece of cake. It's my lifestyle to be self-sufficient with just the ingredients I have at home. Of course, the body is also one body with the sofa, but at times like this, the more you move, the less depressed you become. I want to move quickly. "Gâteau au chocolat" means chocolate cake. Unlike sponge cake, the texture is dense. If you use dark chocolate with a high cocoa content, you can meet the high-end taste that is bittersweet. I like sweet rather than too bitter, so I used the 54.5% Callebaut 811 product. It's not an insanely sweet cake, and it's not burdensome to eat one piece of cake with a lazy afternoon coffee.

It's definitely a white Christmas here where I am.
It snowed a lot today, and there are snow forecasts for the next few days. It's been a long time since I've had a perfect white Christmas.

The cream I used today is the best chocolate whipped cream I've ever eaten.

[Preparing Chocolate Cream]

1. 75 g water (75 ml)
75 g heavy whipping cream (1/4 cup + 1 Tbsp) 50 g granulated sugar (1/4 cup) 25 g unsweetened cocoa powder (3 Tbsp + 1 tsp)

Put the above four ingredients in a pot, mix with a whisk, and boil over medium-low heat. Remove from heat when it starts to boil.
Pour over the chocolate while hot. Melt the chocolate while stirring and emulsify well.

2. After the chocolate is completely melted, thoroughly emulsify while adding heavy whipping cream in 3 to 4 portions.
3. Cover the cream mixture and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight in the refrigerator.
4. Remove cream mixture from refrigerator before use, and prepare to use by whipping on medium speed until soft peaks. 
(Whip just before use the same day.)

[Making Chocolate Sponge Cake]

*Line a baking paper in a 15 cm round pan (6 inches) and start preheating the oven to 350°F (180°C).

1. Add sugar and salt to 3 eggs at room temperature and beat until ribbon stage.
After checking that the batter remains intact for more than 5 seconds, add the soft flour, cocoa powder, and baking powder and sift.
Fold and mix until no powder is visible.

2.Add 2 scoops of batter to a bowl with vegetable oil and warm milk and mix to make sacrificial batter.
Add the sacrificial dough and mix thoroughly. 
Proceed quickly from this point.


3.  Pour the batter into the prepared pan, stir the batter with chopsticks to remove large air bubbles.
Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (180°C) for about 25 to 30 minutes. Baking time may vary.
Shock the cake pan by dropping it on the table a few times as soon as you take it out of the oven. Then turn the cake over on a cooling rack to cool.
When completely cooled, slice into 3 sheets.


[Making Homemade Deer Chocolate Topper]

1. Download the template and print it.
Place the template in a ziplock bag.
2. Prepare the tempered dark chocolate.
3. Follow the pattern and draw with chocolate.
4. After completely hardened, remove the deer chocolate.
5. Glue wooden skewers or chocolate sticks with chocolate to the back of the deer.


*Check out how to make it into a video.*


[Assembling the cake]

1. Apply the prepared whipped cream on top of the first layer. It would be good to apply cream as much as the thickness of the sponge cake sheet.
Place a second sheet on top of the cream and repeat the above operation.



2. Keep the cream neatly organized on the top and sides. Line the sides with an acetate cake sheet.

3. Pipe the cream on top using the nozzle of your choice. 
I used 869K (Korean number).
Raise the top with chocolate curls and sprinkle with cocoa powder.
Decorate with cherries and deer toppers.




Decorate it with a ribbon, put it in a box, and gift it to a loved one.
