What a great way to start off a month of chocolate bliss. Thanks to Holly of Phe.mom.enon for picking this weeks TWD recipe. It's actually named "15-minute Magic Chocolate Amaretti Torte" and that's truly about all the time it took to throw this together. Everything happens in the food processor so the clean up is a cinch also. A bonus!
Many of the bakers had trouble finding the amaretti cookies that Dorie suggested, but I was lucky on that front. I think they're important in this because of the intense almond flavor they bring, but a little shot of almond extract might do the trick.
This is a really great cake that I know I'll be making again. It's dense, chocolatey, and really easy.
Make sure to visit Holly's site for the recipe.
Your texture looks fabulous.
ReplyDeleteGlad you liked it! It was really rich, perhaps a bit too much for me.
ReplyDeleteThat ice cream on top looks like a perfect partner for the torte. Great job.
ReplyDeleteLooks wonderful. So moist. I am still looking for the cookies. Maybe I will use nillas. Great job.
ReplyDeleteYum! I love how your glaze is thick yet moist, just like the torte!
