Ingredients:
1. Stork Margarine
As the main ingredient in this recipe, Stork Margarine is what gives this cake its rich and buttery texture. Made with high-quality vegetable oils, this margarine is perfect for baking as it ensures a light and fluffy texture in your cakes. It also adds a delicious depth of flavor to the chocolate cake.
2. Dark Chocolate
Dark chocolate is the star of this cake, adding a decadent and intense chocolate flavor. Make sure to use a high-quality dark chocolate with at least 70% cocoa for the best results. The bitterness of the dark chocolate balances out the sweetness of the cake, creating a well-rounded and delicious flavor.
3. Mixed Dried Fruits
To add a festive touch to this cake, we're using mixed dried fruits such as cranberries, raisins, and cherries. These fruits add a pop of color and texture to the cake, making it look even more impressive. Plus, they add a hint of sweetness and a chewy bite to each slice.
4. Ground Almonds
For a moist and nutty texture, we're incorporating ground almonds into the cake batter. They add a subtle nuttiness and help to keep the cake from becoming too dry. Plus, almonds are a great source of healthy fats and protein, making this cake a slightly healthier option for your holiday dessert spread.
5. Christmas Spices
No Christmas cake is complete without a hint of festive spices. This recipe calls for a combination of cinnamon, nutmeg, and allspice, which add warmth and depth of flavor to the chocolate cake. These spices also give off a delicious aroma that will fill your kitchen as the cake bakes.
Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease an 8-inch round cake tin with Stork Margarine.
2. In a double boiler, melt dark chocolate and Stork Margarine together until smooth and well combined. Set aside to cool.
3. In a separate bowl, mix together mixed dried fruits, ground almonds, and Christmas spices.
4. In a large mixing bowl, beat Stork Margarine, brown sugar, and vanilla extract until light and fluffy. Gradually add in eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
5. Slowly add in the cooled chocolate mixture to the butter and sugar mixture, mixing until well combined.
6. Gradually add in the dry ingredient mixture, stirring until just combined.
7. Pour the batter into the prepared cake tin and smooth the top with a spatula.
8. Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
9. Let the cake cool in the tin for 10 minutes before removing it and placing it on a wire rack to cool completely.
10. Once cooled, decorate the cake with chocolate shavings and icing sugar for a festive touch.
Serve and enjoy this delicious Stork Chocolate Christmas Cake with your loved ones this holiday season!
