In a Nutshell:
Ingredients:
| Chocolate 1 (Bitter) | 200 Grams |
| Banana (Medium size) | 4 Qty |
| Vanilla Extract | 1 Tbsp |
| Cinnamon Powder | 1 Half Tbsp |
| Nutmeg Grated | 1 Tsp |
| Fine Salt | 1/2 Tsp |
Steps:
-
Break the chocolate tablets into small pieces with your hands and place them in a glass bowl. Fill a saucepan suitable for the size of the glass bowl halfway with water and boil it. Place the glass bowl in boiling water and stir constantly to melt the chocolates (Bain-marie method).
-
On the other hand, peel the bananas and reserve 1/2 banana (if you are going to use bananas for decoration). Mash the bananas with a masher or fork until they become creamy. A few large pieces may remain. This will add richness to the texture of the cake.
-
Add crushed bananas to the melted chocolate and mix well until it becomes homogeneous.
-
Add vanilla syrup, cinnamon, salt and nutmeg to the mixture and mix.
-
On the other hand, cut off the corners and place baking paper on a small square glass tray.
-
Pour the mixture into a glass mold and smooth the top with a spatula. When it reaches room temperature, cover it with stretch wrap and put it in the refrigerator. Let the mixture rest for at least 4-5 hours to solidify.
-
During the serving phase, take your cake out of the fridge and turn it upside down onto a serving plate. Lift the baking paper by gently pulling it. Decorate it with banana slices or forest fruits if you wish, slice it and serve cold. Enjoy your meal!
