CHOCOLATE FIG CAKE RECIPE

Chocolate Fig Pudding Cake Recipe

I find myself seated here on a rainy Saturday afternoon after work, savoring the very last remnants of this dark chocolate, fig, and orange pudding. How might I persuade you to prepare it? It resembles a blend of a flourless chocolate cake and a chocolate self-saucing pudding – abundant in dark chocolate, molten, warm, rich, and ideally complemented by melting vanilla ice cream.

It is infused with a hint of orange zest, enriched with ground almonds, and adorned with luscious roasted figs. It is less intricate than a cake – the key is to underbake it, resulting in a jiggly center with a just-set outer crust: every texture ranges from a crackly exterior piece of brownie to a lava-like interior in a gratifying scoop.

If figs or orange do not appeal to you, feel free to omit them entirely for a pure chocolate experience or substitute with whatever ingredients you have available – fresh berries, roasted plums, poached pears, a teaspoon of ground coffee, or hazelnuts instead of almonds.

Additionally, here are some other things I have been enjoying this week..

I have been steering clear of the news, aside from a brief morning glance at the headlines. I am not burying my head in the sand, merely trying to avoid becoming overwhelmed by a barrage of continuous live streams that seldom offer new insights.

Joy the Baker’s Let it Be Sunday column: a compilation of delightful items and intriguing pieces from the internet that you would likely not encounter otherwise. It is preferable to the aforementioned news.

Hot cross buns – this year’s assortment has featured the leading homemade Tivoli Road Bakery recipe, a wait for the Attica bakehouse version infused with anise myrtle, ground strawberry gum, and native fruit spice, topped with finger lime glaze (the recipe can be found here), as well as the rich, crusty sour cherry and chocolate variation by Baker Bleu.

I have been reading on the couch, accompanied by cups of ippudo hojicha tea that managed to sneak into my luggage from Tokyo. I just completed The Sympathizer – I would highly recommend it.

Ruby Tandoh’s Good Food Things – a collection of small culinary experiences that are often overlooked but culminate in something remarkable – consider ‘neatening’ the edge of a cake; warm butter melting on a chilled pan; the aroma of fresh doughnuts by the pier; saving the finest for last. You can discover them on her Instagram and Twitter.

My latest favorite pour-over coffee maker, courtesy of Market Lane, is best enjoyed steaming alongside the previously mentioned hot cross buns.

A whole morning dedicated to creating Ottolenghi’s s’mores cookies – peanut butter shortbread filled with delicate single egg white marshmallow and coated in dark chocolate. Completely worthwhile.

Warm Fig and Chocolate Sponge Cake

Warm Fig and Chocolate Sponge Cake

INGREDIENTS

½ cup/100 grams superfine sugar
2 tablespoons dark rum
2 teaspoons finely grated orange zest, plus 1 tablespoon juice
12 ripe black figs (about 14 ounces/400 grams), tough stems removed and figs halved lengthwise
2 eggs, whites and yolks separated
⅓ cup plus 2 tablespoons/100 milliliters heavy cream
¼ cup/35 grams all-purpose (plain) flour
2 tablespoons/15 grams cocoa powder
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
¼ teaspoon flaky sea salt
1 ½ ounces/40 grams dark chocolate (70 percent), roughly chopped into scant 1/2-inch/1-centimeter pieces
Crème fraîche, for serving

PREPARATION

Heat the oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit/190 degrees Celsius.

Add 1/4 cup/50 grams sugar to a small, oven-proof, high-sided sauté pan with a 6-inch/15-centimeter base (or similar). Cook over medium-high heat, swirling the pan a few times, until the sugar has melted and turned a dark caramel color, 5 to 8 minutes. Carefully add the rum — it will spit and seize up a little — and cook for another 30 seconds, stirring until combined and thick. Remove from the heat, stir in the orange juice and figs, and set aside to cool.

Add the egg yolks to a medium bowl along with 2 tablespoons/25 grams sugar. Whisk by hand until pale and thick, about 3 minutes. Add the cream, flour, cocoa powder, vanilla, salt and orange zest, then whisk until smooth and thick.

In another medium bowl, using a clean whisk, whisk the egg whites by hand with the remaining 2 tablespoons/25 grams sugar until they form stiff peaks, 4 to 5 minutes. Fold gently into the yolk batter, then pour the mixture over the figs in the sauté pan (it should cover the figs completely).

Sprinkle all over with the chocolate and bake until the batter rises and is cooked through, about 25 minutes. Remove from the oven, divide among four bowls and drizzle with any remaining liquid from the pan. Serve hot, with some crème fraîche alongside. Cool. Enjoy the Warm Fig and Chocolate Sponge Cake !!!
