Chocolate Cake with Italian Meringue (Marshmallow Frosting)

[@aragusea]

Q: So does that frosting have raw eggs in it? A: No no, the boiling syrup definitely cooks the egg whites when you beat it in. If you do that in a metal bowl, you'll feel the sides get really hot. 240ºF syrup is no joke. Q: Wouldn't it have been easier to pour the boiling syrup into the eggs in a stand mixer? A: Absolutely, but I've decided to avoid using my stand mixer in videos whenever possible. I don't want people to get the impression that they need such an expensive piece of gear to make the recipe, because most of the time they really don't. Q: Could you brown that meringue with a torch to make it like a toasty marshmallow? A: Absolutely, go for it. Italian Meringue is often used in Baked Alaska. Q: Could you get a deeper flavor by blooming the cocoa in coffee instead of milk, or by adding espresso powder? A: Totally, I'm just not a big fan of coffee, and I kinda like how this recipe doesn't taste too "grown up." Q: Do you have to bloom the cocoa in a hot pan like that? Can you just heat the milk in the microwave? A: You don't have to do it in the pan like I did, but I think that method is super convenient, because it only dirties one dish, and I also think it improves the flavor, because the cocoa actually toasts a little on the bottom of the pan. ENDNOTE: Thanks again for your support and positivity regarding the sponsorship. I'm the primary breadwinner for a family of four, I've got a mortgage to pay and college accounts to fund, and I can't just be doing all this work for fun (though I am having a great time doing this). More than the money itself, it's important that I diversify my income sources so that I'm not overly reliant on one stream that could cut off at any time. I promise you I will never accept money to say things that aren't true, and I won't endorse things I don't actually like. I've been really impressed with Squarespace, both in dealing with them behind the scenes and in using it to build my new site, which is gonna look awesome. So, legit, use my referral link and save that 10 percent! squarespace.com/ragusea

[@Dan-fn1uw]

I have a question. Would using a different, more chocolatey, deep frosting be overkill? Or maybe not go hand in hand with the less grown-up tasting cake?

Made this today. I managed to overcook the syrup to the point that it got caramelized, so I made another batch. I got a stroke of genius and decided to cut up some of the solidified caramel into small pieces that I then sprinkled on the cake, and it looked absolutely fantastic. It was like small topazes on my cake, and one of my proudest cooking achievements in a while. I also decorated it with some chopped chocolate, which was nice too. Great recipe!

[@bl6973]

Sliacen if you want to dip your finger in hot syrup then dip your whole hand into cold water then dip your finger in the caramel and dip it again in cold water. This is leidenhurst effect. Long story short. The water acts as a barrier and won’t boil off because water takes a lot of energy to boil. Which will make the caramel cool.

[@michaelthorson4951]

Adam, I have a wonderful recipe video for you. It is for a S’mores cake It is your chocolate cake minus the chocolate chunks with the ”marshmallow frosting” let it set over night and toast the outer layer of frosting with a butane torch hence toasting the marshmallow.

I love this recipe because it’s wonderful if you follow it closely while still working well with a few variations. My partner’s birthday just came up and there was a smaller group of us so I cut the recipe in half, which was a great size for 4 people, and I quickly whipped a little bit of cream cheese and raspberry jam together and used that as a filling instead of also using the merengue in the center.

Hey Adam, I actually baked this cake, it was pretty good. Moist, dense, and the italian meringue frosting was so good. Just one problem, though. It's a little too bitter for my taste, even though I intentionally used less cocoa powder to make it less bitter. It could've been the Lindt 70% dark chocolate that I used also. Luckily, it seemed to taste less bitter the next day, perhaps because the temperature was lower. But, other than that, it's pretty damn good. If I was to bake it again, I'd probably use a chopped up milk chocolate bar, rather than dark chocolate.

I made this for me and my family, it was really great! I used normal cocoa, not dutch processed, but it was still incredible. With the extra chocolate bars we bought (I thought i would need more) I made your hot chocolate recepie which was also super delicious. It was a bit strange having hot chocolate in the middle of summer but i didnt care!

I'm about to make this. Did you use a dark chocolate bar for the cake or a milk chocolate one?

[@duckdude7664]

Swamidan I love dark chocolate! So I used a bar of 70% dark chocolate. It was great :)

I just tried the recipe and it turned out great! Thanks Adam for being such a nice guy.

I just made this cake last night it’s so tasty and the meringue actually does taste like marshmallow fluff. This is my new favourite chocolate cake.
