Показать описание

Ingredients
3 eggs
1 cup (200g) granulated sugar
3/4 cup olive oil
5 oz (140g) dark chocolate
1/2 cup hot coffee
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1 and 1/2 cups (200g) all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 cup cocoa powder
1/2 teaspoon ground cardamom seeds
The Icing:

4 oz (113g) semi-sweet or dark chocolate
1/2 cup (125 ml) heavy whipping cream
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
For Serving:

homemade whipped cream
berries
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 325 °F, 160 °C.

Grease a 9-inch (23 cm) round springform pan and line the bottom with parchment paper.

Place the chocolate in a small bowl or pitcher and add the hot coffee over it. Whisk together until melted. Add the olive oil and vanilla extract and set aside to cool slightly.

Beat the eggs with the sugar on high speed for 2-3 minutes.

Combine the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and cardamom in a bowl and whisk together.

Add the melted chocolate mixture to the mixer and beat on low speed.

Add the flour mixture in a few batches until combined.

Use a spatula to mix the batter and to release anything that is stuck to the sides and bottom of the mixing bowl. Transfer the batter to the prepared pan.

Bake on the center rack of the rpeheated oven for 35-45 minutes. The sides will be fully cooked but the center shoule still be dense and moist. Ovens bake differently so keep an eye on it.

Allow the cake to cool and make the icing.

Heat the cream until scalding hot. Place the chocolate and vanilla in a small bowl and add the cream. Whisk together until shiny and smooth.

Transfer the cake to a serving platter. Carefully remove the parchment paper.

Spread the icing over the top of the cake and allow it to drip down the sides.

Serve with homemade whipped cream and berries.

Cardamom is a delicious and sadly forgotten spice !!! I noticed that it was used in many old time recipes back in the day !!! It really adds a wonderful flavour to baked goods !!! Only a small pinch is needed in most recipes, because it is very potent !!! It makes a great addition to the common Fall spices !!! 🍁🍂🍁

AH-mazing chocolate olive oil cake recipe! I wanted a new dessert for the Christmas holidays and something that would satisfy my chocolate lovers in the bunch! I had to make it ahead of Christmas to be sure that I prepared it properly and if it should be included in our family meal. This one went over BIG…so needless to say we are officially making this for the family this season. Yum is all I can say! I’ve given out this recipe to 4 or 5 folks already who tried it and fell in love. Best served warmed with a little dap of whipped topping or a scoop of vanilla ice cream if you want to indulge even more. Thank you Dimitra for the awesome recipe!

I would not have expected the cardamom. Years ago, I volunteered at an event and the caterers had chocolate disks with sea salt and coriander. I thought it sounded strange, but they were some of the best chocolates I've ever had! So maybe I should give cardamom a try 🙂

This chocolate cake looks irresistibly good, If I make this, I would serve this with homemade dark chocolate mirror glaze and a nice, big, generous scoop of vanilla ice cream

The ultimate Valentine's Day cake! I made this today and we loved it! So moist and delicious! I was worried it might be too rich but it was surprisingly light! So flavourful, moist and so easy to make. Love watching your videos, so informative and easy to follow. Thank you Dimitra! You have become my "go to" for all things Greek and everything inbetween! 😄💙🤍
