Recipe's preparation

    Mud Cake
  1. Grate chocolate 5 secs on spd 8

    Add butter and water and cook for 3 mins, spd 3, temp 50 deg.

    Cool slightly (until 37 deg at least)

    Add eggs on at a time on spd 3 until combined.

    Add sugar and flour and mix on speed 4 for 30 secs

     

    Cook for 45-60 mins in oven 180 deg...

Tip

I use either a 23, 25, 30 cm tin, round or square. 

I use this cake as a base for parties. Have used for wedding cake as well. Is great for stacking.

This cake cannot be cooked in a springform tin as mixture is very runny.

Mixture can be doubled to make a high cake for decorating.

    HeppyFam:
    I baked this for my daughter who has Coeliac Disease just last week and use the Coles brand gluten free plain flour. Everyone raved about it and no one could tell the difference.

    Thanks so much for this recipe.  I had a very similar non TMX recipe and I always use it for special occasion cakes.  It is easy to make, stays moist and also freezes well.

    I found it to be quite dense and abit of an eggy taste. Looked beautiful though

    Hi there, would you think it would be fine with milk chocolate instead of dark? Or does it not taste like dark with the other ingredients?
