13 Ingredients and Directions of Chocolate Decadence Cake Recipe ...
By Olga • Jul 21, 2024 MD

For chocoholics, this is a great recipe that is to die for and you can be proud of to serve in large social occasions; whether served with creme custard, stout beer or mixed berries, this is the kind of cake that your friends will remember you best. It is as good as or maybe even better than the one you can get from a restaurant, with very rich and thick chocolate flavour. It is best served cold and a few days older because its texture and taste gets better in the refrigerator.
Ingredients of Chocolate Decadence Cake:
• 12 ounces semisweet chocolate chips
• 4 (1 ounce) squares unsweetened chocolate
• 1 1/2 cups butter, melted
• 1 3/4 cups white sugar
• 1/2 cup water
• 7 eggs
• 2 cups whipped cream

Directions of Chocolate Decadence Cake:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 10 inch round pan and line bottom with parchment paper.
• Chop chocolate squares and place in a large bowl with chocolate chips. Add melted butter. Heat water and 1 1/2 cups sugar in a saucepan until boiling, and then pour over chocolate. Stir until smooth.
• In a separate bowl, whip eggs with remaining 1/4 cup sugar until thick. Fold into chocolate mixture. Pour batter into 10 inch pan.
• Place 10 inch pan on a cookie sheet in the oven and fill the cookie sheet with water.
• Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 40 to 50 minutes. Remove from oven. Cool and refrigerate for several hours. Be extremely careful not to burn yourself on the hot water when removing the sheet pan from the oven.
• Dip the pan in hot water to remove cooled cake. Garnish with whipped cream and serve.

    I tried this recipe today and I agree there is something wrong. I am a trained baker and have been doing my own stuff for the past 10 or so years (Im no professional but nearly everything I try works out). The list of ingredients seems ok but i would also question whether its whole eggs or egg whites? with the sugar it would create a merangue and would definitely stiffen up the mixture. However the biggest problem I had was the baking time. I thought 40-50 minutes on such a low temperature wouldnt be enough but I have to follow the recipe. When I took the cake out of the over there was a nice hard crust on top which I figured was meant to be that way, so I refidgerated for quite some time but when I took it out of the tin 95% of the cake was still runny! personally I would have put a 1 or even 2 in front of the baking time to have the entire thing baked properly.

    ONLY increase the time if you still put it in ONE pan...if you split it in 2 keep your eye on it :)

    Hello from Denmark.. Going to go way out on a limb here and suggest that it is 7 egg WHITES, and not 7 whole eggs? Its just that you beat eggs, and you whip egg whites. Also, eggs will never get thick, no matter how long you beat them. They just get foamy, but it stays pretty runny. Would be lovely if people had left comments as to how this cake actually turned out..
