Chocolate Cake Made With Orange Marmalade Recipes

CHOCOLATE MUD CAKE WITH ORANGE MARMALADE AND CHOCOLATE-ORANGE BUTTERCREAM

Steps:

• For the marmalade: Cut the oranges and lemon in half, then cut the halves into very thin slices. Place the slices in a large nonstick or stainless-steel pot, add 4 cups water, and bring to a boil. Remove the pan from the heat and add the sugar, stirring well until the sugar is dissolved. Cover the pan and refrigerate overnight.
• The following day, bring back to a boil, reduce the heat, and simmer for 2 hours. Turn up the heat a little and boil gently for another 30 minutes. Place a candy thermometer in the marmalade and cook until it reaches the jelly stage (220 degrees F).
• For the cake: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spray two 8-inch round cake pans with nonstick baking spray.
• Melt the butter and chocolate in an 8-cup microwave-safe container. Whisk in the sugar and then the cocoa powder until fully incorporated. Slowly add the hot coffee in three increments, whisking until smooth. Add the vanilla, then add the eggs, one at a time.
• Combine the flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment; mix until combined. With the mixer on low speed, gradually pour in the chocolate mixture; beat on medium-high speed for 1 minute. Scrape the bottom of the bowl and beat until smooth, another 30 seconds.
• Pour the batter into the prepared cake pans. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes. Cool on a baking rack.
• For the buttercream: Set a clean stand-mixer bowl over a double-boiler and add the egg whites and sugar. Whisk until the sugar is completely dissolved. Transfer the bowl to the mixer and beat with the whisk attachment until stiff and glossy. Piece by piece, gradually incorporate the butter--the mixture will start to look curdled but will come together once fully incorporated. Add the melted chocolate, cocoa powder, orange zest and vanilla; beat until incorporated.
• To assemble: Level the cooled cake layers and lightly brush with the orange liqueur. Spread the top of each layer with a thin layer of marmalade and then, using an offset spatula, with the buttercream cream. Stack the cake layers.

CHOCOLATE & ORANGE MARMALADE CAKE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 190C/170C fan/gas 5. Butter the base and sides of two 20cm round sandwich tins and line with baking paper.
• In a large mixing bowl beat the margarine and sugar together until light and fluffy.
• In a separate bowl mix together the flour, baking powder and cocoa powder.
• Gradually add the eggs, one at a time, with a little of the flour mixture, folding the ingredients in.
• Add the remaining flour. Add the milk, marmalade and orange extract. Mix all of the ingredients together to form a soft dropping consistency. You will need to mix together well to break up the marmalade, but don't worry if there are some marmalade lumps still present as they will be pockets of added yum when the cake is finished.
• Split the mixture between the two tins and cook for approx 25 minutes, or until a knife inserted into the centre of the cake comes out clean.
• Leave the cakes to cool in the tin for about 10 minutes before turning out on a cooling rack.
• Put all of the margarine required for the cocoa buttercream into a clean bowl. Gradually sieve the icing sugar (around 40g at a time) and cocoa powder into the bowl using a fine meshed sieve, stirring together each time you add more until you have a smooth buttercream.
• Once the two halves of cake are cool enough, spread the 3 tablespoons of orange marmalade of one of the halves and the cocoa buttercream on the other half and sandwich the two together.
• Place the cake on a large plate and decorate by sprinkling lightly with icing sugar using a fine meshed sieve.
