Cherry and rose flourless chocolate cake

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 180 degrees celsius.
  2. Grease and line a 20cm deep-sided cake tin with baking paper.
  3. Place chopped dark chocolate and butter into a small saucepan, and heat on the stove over a low temperature until melted. Allow to cool.
  4. Using a mixer, beat eggs in a large bowl until thick and smooth, then gradually add in the coconut sugar and continue beating until mixed through. Stir in vanilla extract and rosewater.
  5. Add cooled chocolate and butter mixture and stir to combine, then fold in cacao powder and almond meal and transfer to prepared cake tin.
  6. Drop cherries into the cake mixture, spreading them evenly over the cake.
  7. Place the cake in the oven and bake for 45 minutes, or until a skewer inserted comes out clean.
  8. While the cake is cooking, make sauce by placing dark chocolate melts in a saucepan over low heat until melted.
  9. Add thickened cream, vanilla extract, rosewater and cherries to dark chocolate and mix well.
  10. Once cooked, allow the cake to cool in the tin for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool for a further 20 minutes.
  11. Place the cake onto a serving plate and sprinkle with a light layer of cacao powder. Decorate with flowers or additional cherries if you’d like. Serve warm with dark chocolate sauce and thickened cream.

Serves 10.

TOP TIP: Serve with dark chocolate sauce, thickened cream and a dusting of cacao powder and you’re sure to be the most popular person at the party!
