Delicious and Juicy Chocolate Pie that will delight both young and old!
Ingredients
- 250 grams eggs (4 large eggs)
- 150 grams granulated sugar
- 25 grams semolina fine
- 75 grams flour self rising
- 25 grams unsweetened cocoa
For the syrup:
- 100 grams water
- 100 grams granulated sugar
- 400 grams 35% fat cream
- 200 grams Chocolate couverture
- 100 grams milk chocolate
- 25 grams butter
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 180℃. (356 ℉)
- In the mixer bowl, add the eggs and sugar, beat for 15 minutes until they become fluffy.
- Sift the flour, cocoa, and semolina, then gradually add them to the egg mixture, gently folding from bottom to top until the ingredients are combined.
- Grease a baking pan (35x25 cm) thoroughly and pour in the chocolate pie mixture, shaking the pan to spread the mixture evenly without using a spoon to level it, as it will settle on its own.
- Bake for 30 minutes.
- As soon as the chocolate pie is in the oven, prepare the syrup.
- In a saucepan, combine water, sugar, butter, and heavy cream. Allow it to simmer for just a minute or two.
- Break the chocolate into pieces, place it in a deep bowl, and pour the syrup over it. Let it sit for two minutes, then stir with a whisk to combine the ingredients.
- As soon as the sweet comes out of the oven, immediately pour the warm syrup over it. Allow enough time for the syrup to be absorbed. Once it reaches room temperature, serve
