Ingredients:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Bottom:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
1 egg (or 1\/4 cup chickpea flour + 1\/4 cup water)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
1dl = 3.5 ounces or about 1\/2 cup sugar<\/p>\n\n\n\n
50g = 1.75 ounces melted butter<\/p>\n\n\n\n
100g = 3.5 ounces cooked and ground potato<\/p>\n\n\n\n
3\/4dl = 2.5 ounces flour<\/p>\n\n\n\n
3 table spoon cocoa (true cocoa not a cocoa drink mix like Nesquick)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
1 tea spoon vanilla (or vanilla sugar)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
1 tea spoon baking powder<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Top:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
100g = 3.5 ounces cooked and ground potato<\/p>\n\n\n\n
50g = 1.75 ounces melted butter<\/p>\n\n\n\n
3\/4dl = 2.5 ouncessugar<\/p>\n\n\n\n
1dl = 3.5 ounces cream (35% cream used for making whipped cream)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
2 table spoons cocoa (true cocoa not drink mix)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
1 tea spoon vanilla (or vanilla sugar)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
1 egg (or 1\/4 cup chickpea flour + 1\/4 cup cream)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Making of:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Bottom:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Whip the eggs and sugar. Add butter and potato. In a separate bowl mix flour, baking powder, cocoa and vanilla. Add it to the egg and potato mix and mix it through thoroughly. Put into a cake pan and bake at 170 degrees Celsius = 325 degrees Fahrenheit = Gas mark 3 for 5-10 minutes until it’s half done.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Top:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Whip the eggs and sugar, add cream, butter, potato, cocoa and vanilla (in this order). Pour the mix onto the half done bottom and bake at 170 degrees Celsius = 325 degrees Fahrenheit = Gas mark 3 for 15-20 minutes until it doesn’t stick to the toothpick any more. When done you can cover it with powdered sugar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Additional info:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Use dutch processed cocoa powder. Not everyone likes the idea of potato pieces in the cake so you probably should grind the potato as fine as possible. It tends to get sticky though. I think it’s possible to use potato puree too, but it shouldn’t be a too salty version. I’ve tried it with adding cherries from can or frozen cherries or fresh raspberries on top. I have also used either truffle crumbs or plain dutch processed cocoa powder or chopped hazelnuts as dusting on top (after the cake has cooled down). The berries should be added before the topping onto the half baked bottom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
1 dl powdered sugar<\/p>\n\n\n\n
1 tsp butter (not melted, but better if taken out of fridge a bit beforehand)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
1 Tsp dutch processed cocoa powder<\/p>\n\n\n\n
optionally vanilla or rum essence or vanilla or a bit brandy<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mix everything together with applying some flattening pressure with the spoon. If it is very wet (becomes a paste) add some cocoa and sugar. If it is not wet enough you can add brandy or a bit of apple juice. It should stay as a moist powder. If necessary sift through a fine sieve in order to fluff it up.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
