Simple Gateau au Chocolat With Cocoa

I wanted to make a gateau au chocolat for people who are dieting and children who are still being weaned onto solid food so I decided to make one with cocoa.
Now the recipe calls for 40 g pure cocoa, but you can still use the previous combination of 30 g pure cocoa and 20 g processed cocoa if you'd prefer.
I changed the ingredient amounts and steps a little to prevent the cake from shrinking.
For Step 2, if the margarine isn't melting into the mixture very well, try mixing it in over low heat.
You can line the cake tin with baking paper if you'd prefer. Recipe by nokko.t

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Preparation: Weigh out the ingredients. Separate the egg whites and yolks. Sift the ◎ ingredients twice. Grease the cake tin with margarine or vegetable oil.
- 2
Add the cream to a saucepan and heat it up. When the edges begin to bubble, stop the heat and add in the cocoa and margarine. Mix everything together well with a whisk to create the cocoa paste.
- 3
Mix the ☆ ingredients (egg yolks and sugar) well into the cocoa paste and transfer the mixture to a bowl.
- 4
Using a hand mixer, make a stiff meringue out of the egg whites and sugar. Then preheat the oven to 170°C.
- 5
Add 1/3 of the meringue into the cocoa paste and mix it in with a hand mixer on low speed.
- 6
Add the ◎ ingredients and once again mix them in with the hand mixer on low speed.
- 7
Pour half of the remaining meringue into the cocoa paste mixture and fold it in from the bottom of the bowl with a rubber spatula. Then add the rest of the meringue and fold it in again. Be careful not to crush any of the air bubbles of the meringue while you're mixing.
- 8
Pour the batter into the cake tin and drop it lightly onto a surface 2-3 times. Bake it in the oven for 40 minutes. Once baked, leave it in the oven to cool.
- 9
When the gateau au chocolat has cooled, chill it well in the refrigerator. Sprinkle some powdered sugar over the top to finish if you'd like.
- 10
When I chill the gateau au chocolat in the fridge I tend to cover it in parchment paper and aluminium foil secured in place with a rubber band.

Simple and Rich Gateau au Chocolat Simple and Rich Gateau au Chocolat
I got a lot of egg whites for making macarons. I had too many whites and spent many days trying to use them up. I made a gateau au chocolat that used a lot of egg whites, and managed to make a delicious cake using them.* If you add sugar to the meringue, it will become stiff, and when mixing it with melted chocolate, lumps will remain and the meringue will not become fluffy. This is not good, so make the meringue without sugar.* When warming the ■ ingredients in the microwave at the beginning, heat very lightly and then mix to melt. Please do not heat the ingredients repeatedly. Recipe by +pocopoco+ cookpad.japan -

Rich Gateau au Chocolat Rich Gateau au Chocolat
I really like rich gateau au chocolat, so I modified the recipe my way.The texture will not turn out right if you over-bake it, so I recommend stopping when a creamy batter comes out when checking with a skewer. If the temperature of the batter goes down, the chocolate will cause the batter to harden, so keep the eggs at room temperature. It is best eaten the next day onward. For 15 cm [5.9 in] round mold.

I tried a lot of gateau chocolat recipes but sometimes the resultant cakes were dry or too bitter. This recipe gave me a really moist and soft cake, though!Use your favorite liquor. On the day you bake the cake, the fragrance of the liquor will be on the strong side, so if you'd prefer, you can swap it out for milk instead.If you want to make a thick 18-cm cake increase the quantities to 1.5 times of a 15-cm cake.

My Secret Gateau au Chocolat My Secret Gateau au Chocolat
I wanted to make healthy sweets for my mother who loves chocolate. The taste comes from a friend who made a chocolate cake with nuts for me a long time ago. I was going to eat it a little at a time, but it was so delicious I ended up polishing it off all at once, haha. This really is a recipe I don't want to tell anyone else.This is a healthy snack with a modest sweetness without heavy cream.Don't boil the milk. I also recommend not using low-fat milk for the best rich taste. For the meringue add some sugar, whip into a fine foam, and then add sugar again…repeat this process. Once it forms peaks and it's firm enough not to fall out of the bowl if turned upside-down it's just right. If you mix in a scooping motion from the bottom of the bowl upwards this keeps the meringue intact. I recommend non-sweet, bitter cocoa. Recipe by pink.lemonade cookpad.japan
