Pour into prepared pan and spread evenly. I used my stand mix for this step, using the flat beater attachment, mix together the yoghurt, sugar, butter, eggs and vanilla until just combined then fold in half of the raspberries. In a bowl, whisk the flour, cocoa, instant coffee powder, baking powder and salt until combined. Grease a baking pan and cover in baking parchment. 2 tablespoons melted unsalted butter(cooled) 177 ml all purpose flour(I used cake flour as that was what I had on hand) The brownies are from a classic standard brownie recipe, of which I have tweaked a bit. The cookies were okay but didn’t quite get my stamp of approval to make the cut for a blog post( if you know what I mean) The recipe is from the book Simply Nigella, and seems rather interesting because of the toasty, nutty taste the buckwheat lends to the cookie against the tartness of the dark chocolate and the complementing nuttiness of the tahini too. I tried making gluten-free chocolate cookies, a Nigella recipe using Buckwheat flour, dark chocolate and I added tahini. It’s always those flavour pairings that we don’t expect to go together that end up blowing our minds and surprising our tastebuds. I’ve tried the Lindt dark chocolate studded with toasted sesame seeds and is quite a favourite of mine, but never have I thought to pair chocolate with Tahini. Feeling like I’ve been bewitched and in a chocolatey daze, I’ve taken the flavour combination and put my own twist on it. For the past week all I could think and dream about is their mesmerizing Chocolate Tahini flavour with glorious nutty notes from the tahini paste and an unmistakable velvety smooth texture no ice cream I’ve ever had possesses.

Spread a little more cream over the cherries, then top with the final sponge, upside down, to give an even, flat top. Spread over a layer of the kirsch cream, about 1cm (½in) deep. Sandwich together with a second sponge and brush again with the syrup. ![]() Brush the sponge with some of the syrup spread over the raspberry preserve. Place a little kirsch cream on a serving plate and secure one of the sponges on top. To assemble the cake, level the tops of the sponges using a sharp knife, if necessary. To make the kirsch cream, whip the cream and sugar to firm peaks, then fold in the vanilla and kirsch. To make the syrup, put 200ml water and the sugar in a pan bring to the boil for 5 minutes. Shave the block of chocolate using a potato peeler or by scraping the blade of a kitchen knife across the surface. Cool in the tins for 5 minutes, then turn out on to a rack to cool completely. Stir in the melted butter.ĭivide the cake mixture between the tins and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until springy to the touch. Sift the cocoa powder and flour together, then fold in. In a large bowl, whisk the eggs, vanilla and sugar together using an electric hand whisk until thick and the whisk leaves a trail – it will take about 10 minutes. ![]() Grease 3 x 22cm-diameter sandwich cake tins and line the bases with baking paper.
