Flourless Chocolate Cake
Gluten Free
There are many recipes for flourless chocolate cake. I like them as they are usually a lot more moist than cakes with flour and they are gluten free. This one has the addition of an apple.
Flourless
chocolate cake
4 eggs, separated
100g sugar
100g dark chocolate, melted
1 dessert apple, peeled and grated
100g ground almonds
Preheat oven to 180 degrees C. Lightly grease a 20cm spring form
tin. Cream egg yolks and sugar until light in colour and sugar has dissolved.
Mix in cooled melted chocolate, apple and almonds.
Beat egg whites until stiff, then gently fold into mixture a
third at a time. (Cut and fold egg whites in gently with a large metal spoon to
avoid knocking out too much air. Pour into prepared tin.
Bake for 45 minutes.
You can sprinkle with icing sugar or ice with chocolate icing.
