Recipe's preparation

  1. 1. Soak the chopped prunes in the Drambuie or Frangelico for 10 minutes, set aside.

    2. Break the chocolate into pieces and grate for 5 to 6 seconds speed 7.

    3. Add all other ingredients to bowl including the soaked prunes and mix for 30 seconds speed 6.

    4. Place in a greased and lined 20 cm round cake tin and bake at 190 c for 25 to 28 minutes. The centre will be fudgy like a brownie when tested but the cake should have risen and feel springy to the touch. Cool in tin and then turn out onto coolong rack.

    5. Serve cold topped with icing sugar or ganache everyday cookbook page 142. Nice served with a shot glass of liqueur and whipped cream.

Tip

Cake freezes really well and you can substitute flour with gluten free if required.

    Great cake, made it tonight with the fig gelato and it was a winner with everyone. Lovely 'Nutella' type flavour. Thanks for the recipe tmrc_emoticons.)

    Big Smile I thought this was a beautiful cake too, very smooth and moist, but I wonder if putting the roughly chopped  walnuts in last,  and not blitzing them with the rest of the ingredients, would add a bit of crunch and taste to the texture and flavour of the cake.

    This is a beautiful cake.

    The recipe works exactly as described (although I used Kahlua as it was all I had).

    The cake is rich, dense and the taste is amazing.
