From the title, you can tell this is not a cake. But I had the pastry dough already thawed and thought I'd finish off the recipe tonight. Yes, this is the third thing I baked in two days. I am a bit crazy. So I rolled out the pastry dough and baked it.
I actually had (still have) no clue how long it should have been baked for. I baked it for 15 mins at 350f. The toothpick came out dry. Then I boiled 35% cream, mixed it into semi-sweet chocolate and stirred it until it was combined. Then added it directly to the cooled shell. According to the instructions, it should have been added through a sieve but I thought it would clog up the sieve...
Then came the hardest part for me. The designing. I am not an artist. You must show me/tell me. I can follow instructions but leave me to my own imagination and this is what I come up with!
Now maybe people will be afraid of letting me make their cake! :-)
I need to take it out of its baking tray. Will do so tomorrow. Will try it tomorrow as well. I hope it turns out well. Cannot eat anything sweet the rest of the day. I'm on sugar overload!
Next day update: This is really good. Good sweetness. Next time would put more raspberries and which chocolate. When you eat the raspberry with the sweets, it adds a great contrast. Shell is nice and solid but crumbles in the mouth. Yummmmmy. Will freeze one and see how it turns out.
I'd totally make this again!
