Ingredients:
To make this delicious Ultra Soft Chocolate Pear Cake, you will need the following ingredients:
200g Dessert Chocolate (ideally good quality, such as 70% cocoa dark chocolate)
4 ripe pears (Williams or Conference type for a sweet taste)
4 fresh eggs
250g flour (preferably type 55)
195g + 2 tbsp sugar (classic caster sugar or brown sugar for a more caramel taste)
150g butter (and an extra 35g for the mold)
3 tbsp milk (preferably whole)
1 vanilla pod (or 1 tsp vanilla extract)
1/2 sachet baking powder (about 5g)
These simple ingredients combine to create a symphony of flavors in every bite of this exquisite cake.
Preparation:
1. Preheat the Oven and Prepare the Mold
Preheat your oven to Th. 6 (180°C). This step is crucial for even cooking.
Generously butter a cake tin about 24 cm in diameter. You can also line it with baking paper to make it easier to unmold.
2. Prepare the Pears
Peel the pears: Use a peeler to gently remove the skin.
Cut them into slices: Slice each pear into thin strips (about 1 cm thick).
