Torta od čokolade i crvenog vina (Chocolate and Red Wine Cake)

wine-cake-thumbnail-wp(English version below)
Jedan od onih recepata na koji sam naletjela, a onda mi nije izlazio iz glave. Žestoka, moćna, čokoladna, gusta, čvrsta, dekadentna, samo za ozbiljne čokoljupce (djeco i trudnice, nažalost ovo nije recept za vas) :)


wine-cake2-wpNa recept sam naišla surfajući u potrazi za kolačem s vinom. Recept se nalazi ovdje: http://winemag.co.za/recipes/chocolate-wine-cake/. Nisam ništa mijenjala, osim što sam prepolovila količinu i dobila jednu malu tortu i 2 cupcakea. Torticu sam pekla nekih 45-50 minuta (treba čačkalicom provjeravati, kad izađe suha, torta je gotova). Za one koji su slabiji s engleskim, recept možete pogledati pomoću GoogleTranslate ovdje (ne zamjerite jer ne prenosim recept, sva su prava zadržana). U receptu ne piše da čokoladu za tijesto treba otopiti, valjda se podrazumijeva. No za svaki slučaj: čokoladu treba otopiti :)

Za pomoć ću napisati mjere:
1 cup chocolate chips = 180 g čokolade za kuhanje
1 cup butter = 225 g maslaca
Ostalo je lako izmjeriti u posudi s označenim mililitrima:
Suhi sastojci: 1 cup = 240 ml
Tekući sastojci: 1 cup = 250 ml.

wine-cake-wp Whoa! The moment I saw the recipe, I knew I would bake it! And it just didn’t wanna leave my head :) This is one moist, tight, intense, dense, mighty, decadent cake!


I gooled the recipe searching for the wine and chocolate cake. The recipe is from this page: http://winemag.co.za/recipes/chocolate-wine-cake/. I didn’t change a thing, except I cut the ingredients in half, and the mixture was enough for one small round cake and 2 cupcakes. I baked the small cake for about 45 – 50 minutes. I left it to cool, then I covered it with clingfilm and left it in the refrigerator over night. Next morning I cooked the ganache.

There is a bajillion of chocolate in this cake, I recommend it to the passionate chocolate lovers :) Kids and pregnant women, this is not the cake for you :)

    • Hm, I don’t think most kids would like this cake as much as the adults, because, you definitely can sense the wine in the cake. But maybe, you never know :)
      But you’re right, full of chocolate :)
      No particular trick, just a good recipe for the glaze!
