Chocolate Soufflé Cake
Serve with softly whipped cream and berries
for an elegant dessert.
Makes one 10-inch (25 cm) round cake,
sixteen 1-inch (2.5 cm) slices
6
ounces (170 g) bittersweet chocolate
2
ounces (57 g) semisweet chocolate
2
tablespoons (30 ml) unsalted butter
plus additional for pan preparation
9 eggs
2
egg whites
1
1
⁄
4
cups (300 ml) granulated sugar
1
⁄
3
cup (75 ml) all-purpose flour
confectioners’ sugar for dusting
Preheat oven to 365°F (185°C).
Cut a circle of parchment paper to line
a 10-inch (25 cm) round cake pan.
Butter the bottom and sides of cake pan
well. Add enough flour to coat the but-
tered interior, being sure to tap the pan
and remove any excess flour. Place the
parchment circle at the bottom of the
pan and butter and flour it as well. Melt
the chocolate and butter in a stainless
bowl over a double boiler; reserve.
Separate eggs into two mixing bowls,
adding the extra whites to the bowl of
egg whites. Add
3
⁄
4
cups (175 ml) of
sugar to the bowl of yolks. Using the
stainless steel beaters, mix the yolks
and sugar on Speed 4 for 1
1
⁄
2
minutes
until very pale and thick. Using Speed
1, stir
1
⁄
2
cup (125 ml) of the egg yolk
mixture into the warm chocolate mixture
– this will temper the warm chocolate
and prevent it from curdling the eggs.
While mixing add the “tempered”
chocolate mixture into the remaining
egg yolk mixture; reserve.
Using the Chef’s Whisk, beat the egg
whites on Speed 5 for 1 minute. Add
the remaining
1
⁄
2
cup (125 ml) of sugar
at this time and continue beating whites
for an additional 2 minutes until you
achieve soft peaks. Fold whites into the
yolk mixture in three additions
reserving a small amount of whites.
This step is to be done gently using the
beater attachments on the lowest
speed. Be careful to scrape the bottom
and sides of the bowl. Sift the flour into
mixture and fold gently. Finally add the
last of the egg whites, again using the
same folding technique. To ensure
complete incorporation, use a rubber
spatula to scrape the bottom and sides
of the bowl.
Pour batter into prepared pan and bake
for about 40 minutes, until cake has
puffed and cracked but is still soft to the
touch on top.
Turn cake out onto serving plate and
remove pan. Sprinkle the top with sifted
confectioners’ sugar.

Arrange rack in the middle of the oven.
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Butter
and flour 9 x 5 x 3-inch (22 x 12 x 7 cm)
loaf pan.
In a mixing bowl, sift together flour,
baking powder, and salt; reserve.
Insert the stainless steel beaters. Place
the melted butter and sugar in a large
mixing bowl and mix using Speed 3 for
one minute; the mixture will still seem
slightly granular. Continue mixing and
add
1
⁄
2
cup (125 ml) lemon juice and
zest. Add eggs one at a time and then
the vanilla.
Add the dry ingredients and yogurt to
the batter alternately in three additions,
using Speed 2, ending with the yogurt.
Pour batter into prepared loaf pan.
Bake on the middle rack for approxi-
mately 1 hour and 35 minutes, rotating
the pan half way through baking time.
Check cake for doneness after 1 hour
and 20 minutes. Cake is finished when
cake tester comes out clean.
While cake is baking, mix remaining
1
⁄
4
cup (50 ml) of lemon juice with sifted
confectioners’ sugar until white and
glossy. Set aside.
Allow cake to rest about ten minutes,
until cool to the touch. Remove from
pan and place on a dish with a lip.
Stick the cake with a toothpick all
over the top, particularly along the
cracks. Pour glaze over top of cake,
using a spatula or pastry brush, in order
to cover the top and side surface of
the loaf.
