Ingredients

Instructions

  1. First you need to preheat your oven to 425ºF/230ºC.Sift together your almond flour, sugar, and flour so you don't have any lumps.Then you should blend in the whole eggs into the flour until smooth.In a separate bowl, whip egg whites to soft peaks and slowly add sugar. Continue whipping to firm moist peaks. If they start crumbling you have over-whipped your egg whites and there isn't any way to save them. Then fold your meringue into mixture until just combined. Make sure you don't over mix it or get too rough and break down all the air you built up in your batter or you'll have a very flat cake. Slowly whisk in the melted butter and chocolate mixture.Finally, spread the mixture onto your prepared silicone mat or cake pan and bake for 8 minutes. Make sure you don't over bake your cake.Once your cake is cooled, sprinkle a thin layer of granulated sugar over the surface of the cake and cover with plastic wrap. Let sit overnight in the fridge. The sugar will dissolve into the cake as a result, the cake will stay moist even if it's exposed to air. Cool huh!

  2. Place your chocolate in a heat proof bowl over a pot of simmering water to melt. Bring your honey just to a boil and remove from the heatPlace your egg yolks into a large heat proof bowl. Add 1/3 of your hot honey and whisk until smooth. Then add in the rest of your honey and whisk until egg yolks are thickened Add your egg mixture to the melted chocolate and whisk to combineWhip up your heavy cream to soft peaks and gently fold into your chocolate base until no streaks are presentPour into molds and freeze

Do people like the taste of the mirror glaze? I have never tried it but would love to try it for Valentines Day but wasn't sure about the taste of it.

Did you make this recipe?
