3 pk Frozen raspberries in syrup
Thawed/10 oz each Cake: 12 oz Semisweet chocolate
Coarsely chopped 4 oz Unsweetened chocolate; chop
1 lb Unsalted butter; diced
1 c Freshly brewed espresso; or
1 tb Instant espresso powder
Dissolved in 1 c Water
1 c Golden brown sugar; packed
8 lg Eggs; beaten to blend
Fresh raspberries For Sauce: Working in batches, puree raspberries and syrup in processor. Strain puree into medium bowl. Chill. For Cake: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line bottom of 9-inch-diameter cake pan with 2-inch-high sides with
parchment. Place all chocolate in large bowl. Bring butter, espresso and sugar to boil in medium saucepan, stirring to dissolve sugar. Add to chocolate; whisk until smooth. Cool slightly. Whisk in eggs. Pour batter into prepared pan. Place cake pan in roasting pan. Pour enough hot water into roasting pan to come halfway up sides of cake pan. Bake until center of cake is set and tester inserted into center comes out with a few moist crumbs attached, about 1 hour. Remove pan from water. Chill cake overnight. Cut around pan sides to loosen cake. Using oven mitts as aid, hold pan bottom over low heat for 15 seconds, warming slightly to release cake. Place platter over pan. Hold pan and platter together tightly and invert. Lift off cake pan; peel off parchment. Serve with sauce and fresh berries. —–
