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.

Ingredient

Food ration :

6 servings

40 grams

Pure cocoa powder

100 ml

Whipped cream or heavy cream

50 grams

Margarine

30 grams

◎Cake flour

20 grams

◎Cornstarch

1/2 tsp

◎ Baking powder

☆Egg yolk

50 grams

☆Sugar

Egg white

50 grams

Sugar

Cooking instructions

* Step 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.

* Step 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.

* Step 3

Mix the ☆ ingredients (egg yolks and sugar) well into the cocoa paste and transfer the mixture to a bowl.

* Step 4

Using a hand mixer, make a stiff meringue out of the egg whites and sugar. Then preheat the oven to 170°C.

* Step 5

Add 1/3 of the meringue into the cocoa paste and mix it in with a hand mixer on low speed.

* Step 6

Add the ◎ ingredients and once again mix them in with the hand mixer on low speed.

* Step 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.

* Step 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.
