Prep Time: 20 minutes

Cooking Time: 50 minutes

Level of Difficulty: 3

source: http://www.myrecipes.com/recipe/rudolphs-chocolate-truffle-cake

Ingredients:

Procedure:

1. In a saucepan, combine the 8 ounces semisweet chocolate, milk and softened butter and cook over low heat. Cook for 8-10 minutes, stirring continuously, until the chocolate is smooth and fully melted.

2. Remove from heat and set the mixture aside to cool.

3. In a large bowl, beat eggs and vanilla extract together. Slowly add the melted chocolate. Mix until all ingredients are thoroughly incorporated.

4. In another bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking soda and salt. Gradually add the chocolate mixture. Mix until smooth and blended.

5. Grease three cake pans measuring 9 inches in diameter. Pour the batter evenly among the three pans.

6. Bake the cake at 325°F for 25-30 minutes. To check whether the cake is done all the way through, insert a toothpick into the center of the cake. If it comes out clean, the cake is done.

7. Cool the cakes on a cooling wire rack for 10 minutes. While you’re waiting for the cake to cool, you can start making the chocolate truffle filling.

8. Chop the semisweet chocolate squares and butter in a heat-safe bowl. Pop into the microwave in 30-second increments, stirring the mixture after each increment.

9. Once the chocolate has melted, start adding the whipping cream, ¼ cup at a time, and the powdered sugar, ½ cup at a time. Remember to stir the mixture well after each addition. Once you’ve used up all the whipping cream and sugar, mix until the filling mixture is fully blended. Allow the filling to cool slightly.

10. Set the first cake layer down on a large plate or tray. Top the first cake layer with around ½ cup of the truffle filling mixture. Spread evenly. Repeat this step until all 3 layers of cake have been put down. Any leftover truffle filling should be set aside for later use.

11. Combine the cream and 10 ounces chopped chocolate in a heat-safe bowl. Pop the bowl inside the microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring the chocolate gently after each interval. Repeat until the chocolate is smooth and thoroughly melted. Set aside for 15 minutes to cool.

12. Spread the melted chocolate mixture around the sides and on top of the cake. Once the cake is thoroughly coated, place the cake inside the refrigerator for 30 minutes or until the glaze has set.

13. Once the cake glaze has set, remove from the refrigerator. With a piping tool with a rosette tip, create a fancy border around the base of the cake using the leftover chocolate truffle filling. Take the grated chocolate and sprinkle it on top of the cake.

The truffle cake filling recipe yields 1¾ cups, perfect for 3-layer cakes.

11. Invert the pan and gently shake the cake off into a place. Set aside to cool.

Prep Time: 15 minutes

Cooking Time: 15 minutes

Level of Difficulty: 2

source: http://cakemerchant.com/2013/10/25/dark-chocolate-speculoos-truffle-cake/

Procedure:

2.  Remove the bowl from the makeshift steamer. Using a handheld mixer on medium high speed, beat the egg white mixture until the mixture doubles in volume and is fluffy in consistency.

3. Reduce the mixer speed to low. Start adding the butter, a tablespoon at a time. Mix until the butter is thoroughly incorporated. If the mixture looks like curdled milk, don’t worry. Just keep whisking the mixture until it becomes smooth.

5. Once you’ve achieved a smooth consistency that’s free of lumps, add Speculoos and vanilla extract. Whisk some more to incorporate the last two ingredients.

This truffle cake recipe is part of the dark chocolate speculoos recipe, but it can be used for any kind of cake. This filling is a great option if your cake has too much chocolate in it already, and you don’t want a chocolate truffle filling.
