Description

Equipment

  • A mixer fitted with the paddle attachment
  • A small Brownie Pan 12.2 x 7.9 inches (20 x 31.5cm) or 1 long loaf pan

Ingredients

  • butter or natural oil for greasing the pan
  • 1 cup (140 grams) all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon (5 grams) baking powder
  • 1 cup+1 tablespoon (250 ml) heavy cream
  • 2/3 cup (70 grams) granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 very generous tablespoons of your favorite chocolate spread

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 325°F/160°C.
  • Generously grease the cake pan.
  • In a small bowl, mix the flour and baking powder thoroughly.
  • In a stand mixer beat heavy cream, sugar, and eggs for 3-5 minutes until the mixture is light and fluffy.
  • With the mixer on low, gradually add the flour mixture. Mix just until combined.
  • Reserve 1/3 cup of batter in a small bowl and pour the remaining batter into the prepared pan.
  • Add the chocolate spread to the reserved batter, and whisk until combined, set aside.
  • Pour batter into the prepared pan.
  • Dollop the chocolate batter over the plain batter in the pan and gently swirl both batters together to make a marbled effect. Be careful not to over swirl- you'll lose the contrasting colors.
  • Bake for 25 to 30 minutes (it might take longer if you are using a loaf pan) or until a toothpick comes out with a few moist crumbs.
  • Let the cake cool in the pan for 20 minutes. Then, remove and cool completely on a wire rack.
