Chocolate No Bake Torte Recipes

FLOURLESS CHOCOLATE TORTE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly butter the bottom and side of a 9-inch springform pan. Combine the chocolate and 1 1/2 sticks butter in a heatproof bowl. Place the bowl over a saucepan of simmering water (do not let the bowl touch the water) and stir until melted and combined. Remove the bowl from the saucepan and let cool slightly.
• Combine the eggs, sugar and salt in a large bowl. Beat with a mixer on medium-high speed until pale and thick, 5 to 8 minutes.
• Gently fold half of the melted chocolate mixture into the egg mixture until just combined, then gently fold in the rest. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake until the top is no longer shiny and barely jiggles and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with only a few crumbs, 35 to 45 minutes. Transfer to a rack and let cool completely in the pan. Remove the springform ring and transfer to a platter; dust with cocoa powder.

CHOCOLATE NO-BAKE TORTE

Steps:

• 1. Lightly coat an 8x3-in. spring form pan with non stick spray. Slice each cake into seven 1/4 inch rounds. Arrange 2 rows around side of pan. Fit remaining slices to cover bottom of pan.
• 2. Beat cream cheese and 1/4 cup sugar in a large bowl, beat with mixer on medium speed until smooth and fluffy. Prepare both boxes as directed on packages, using only one cup of cold water total instead of milk.
• 3. Fold 1/4 cup of the mouse into the cream cheese mixture until no white streaks remain. Fold in remaining mouse until blended. Spoon into the lined pan. Cover and refrigerate 8 hours or over night. To serve, remove pan sides. If you desire, top off slices with whipped cream.

NO-BAKE CHOCOLATE TORTE SALAMON

Steps:

• Chop chocolate and in a double boiler or a metal bowl set over a saucepan of barely simmering water melt chocolate, stirring until smooth. Remove top of double boiler or bowl from heat and let chocolate cool to room temperature, stirring occasionally, about 15 minutes. In a bowl with an electric mixer beat together butter and confectioners' sugar until combined well and beat in chocolate, water, 2 tablespoons liqueur, vanilla, and salt. In another bowl beat 1 cup cream until it just holds stiff peaks and fold into chocolate mixture gently but thoroughly.
• In a small bowl stir together milk and remaining 4 tablespoons liqueur. Working with 1 vanilla wafer at a time, dip wafers into milk mixture twice and arrange enough in a 10-inch springform pan, touching each other, to cover bottom of pan in one tight layer. (Do not worry about spaces between wafers.) Cover wafers in pan with one third chocolate mousse, spreading evenly.
• Make another layer of dipped vanilla wafers on top of mousse in pan in same manner and cover with half of remaining mousse, spreading evenly. Make a third layer of dipped vanilla wafers and cover with remaining mousse. Cover chocolate with a final layer of dipped vanilla wafers. (There will be about 1/2 box cookies left over.) Chill torte, covered, at least 6 hours and up to 3 days or freeze torte, well-wrapped, up to 3 months.
• Run a thin knife around edge of torte and remove side of pan. Smooth side of torte with a knife dipped in hot water. In a bowl beat remaining cup cream until it just holds stiff peaks and spread over top of torte.
• Garnish torte with chocolate shavings and serve chilled or at cool room temperature.

NO-BAKE CHOCOLATE TART

Steps:

• Crush the biscuits by putting them in a large, strong, plastic food bag and bashing with a rolling pin. Melt the butter with the syrup or honey in the microwave, then stir in the biscuits. Press onto the base and up the sides of a 12 x 36cm rectangular tin (or 23-25cm round flan tin) and chill while you make the filling.
• Break up the two chocolate bars and put in a large bowl. Melt in the microwave for 2-3 mins on Medium, stirring halfway through. Stir in the vanilla extract, then sift in the icing sugar. Whip the cream until it just holds its shape, then fold into the melted chocolate. Pour into the prepared tin and smooth the top. Chill for at least 2 hrs or for up to 2 days.
• Just before serving, remove the tart from the tin and slide it onto a flat plate (loosen edges first with the tip of a small pointed knife). You will find it easier to remove the tart if you leave it at room temperature for 30 mins. Put a few tsps of crème fraîche along the centre of the tart (or around the edges if the tart is circular) and top each with a raspberry, then dust lightly with icing sugar. Cut into thin slices and serve with extra raspberries on the side.
