Instructions
Step 1
Prepare the crust. To do this, sift 160 grams of flour with half a teaspoon of baking soda and a pinch of salt. Set aside. Finely chop 60 grams of dark chocolate with a knife or break into pieces. Put it in a fireproof bowl, add 100 grams of sugar, 1 yolk, and 2 tablespoons of milk. Place in a water bath, stirring constantly, until sugar and chocolate are dissolved. The mixture should thicken slightly. Remove from the bath and set aside.
Step 2
Beat 50 grams of butter with sugar (100 grams) until smooth. Add the yolk and beat well again. Add the flour mixture in several stages, alternating with 2 tablespoons of milk and 2 tablespoons of water: flour - milk - flour - water - flour. Add chocolate mixture and beat until smooth. Turn the oven on at 170 ° C.
Step 3
Now beat the protein with a pinch of salt until a thick, fluffy, non-falling mass is formed. Add the beaten egg white to the dough, stir very gently.
Step 4
Take a baking dish with a diameter of about 20 centimeters, brush with butter. Pour the dough into a mold, place in a preheated oven. Bake for about 30 minutes, checking the dough with a toothpick. When it remains dry in the middle of the cake, the cake is ready. Take it out of the oven, remove it from the mold and refrigerate.
Step 5
Prepare the cream. Break 200 grams of dark chocolate into small pieces, put in a bowl and place in a water bath. Melt. Mix 3 tablespoons of cocoa powder and 200 grams of powdered sugar. Beat 80 grams of butter and 125 grams of cream cheese with a mixer until smooth. Add chocolate mixture, cocoa powder and beat thoroughly again. Combine with 150 grams of fat sour cream and beat again. The cream is ready. Use it right away, otherwise it will harden quickly.
