    To make the chocolate icing, combine the remaining condensed milk, evaporated milk, cocoa and butter in a saucepan. Cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture is thick and paste-like. Spread over cooled cake.

    * 1 cup chopped pecans

    DIRECTIONS

    2. Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 35 to 40 minutes, or until cake springs back when touched.

  10. Simple Chocolate Cake
    INGREDIENTS:
    4 (1 oz.) squares unsweetened chocolate
    1/2 cup butter
    1 cup water
    2 cups flour
    2 cups sugar
    pinch of salt
    1/2 cup buttermilk
    1-1/4 tsp. baking soda
    2 eggs, beaten
    1 tsp. vanilla
    2 (1 oz.) squares unsweetened chocolate
    1/4 cup butter
    1/2 cup milk
    4 cups powdered sugar
    2 tsp. vanilla
    PREPARATION:
    1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a large saucepan, melt 4 squares chocolate and 1/2 cup butter in the hot water and bring to a boil. Remove from heat and add flour, sugar and salt. Mix well with a wire whisk or eggbeater.
    2. Then stir in buttermilk, baking soda, eggs and vanilla and beat until smooth. Pour into 13x9" pan and bake at 350 degrees for 25-30 minutes, until the top springs back when touched with a fingertip.
    3. While the cake is baking, make the frosting. In a heavy saucepan, melt 2 squares chocolate and 1/4 cup butter together. Add powdered sugar, milk, and 2 tsp. vanilla and beat well. You may need to add more milk or powdered sugar to reach the desired consistency: the frosting should be pourable. When the cake comes out of the oven, let cool for 15 minutes, then pour the frosting over. Spread if necessary, and let the cake cool. 16 servings.

  15. Chocolate Sponge Cake:

    1/4 cup (50 grams) plus 2 tablespoons (28 grams) granulated white sugar
    6 large eggs, separated
    1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
    4 ounces (112 grams) bittersweet or semisweet chocolate, chopped in small pieces
    3/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
    cocoa powder or powdered sugar for dusting

    Chocolate Whipped Cream:

    1 cup (240 ml) heavy whipping cream
    1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
    3 tablespoon (40 grams) granulated white sugar
    1 1/2 tablespoons cocoa powder (I use Dutch-processed)

    Chocolate Sponge Cake: Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C) and place the oven rack in the center of the oven. Butter, or spray with Pam, a 17 inch (43 cm) by 12 inch (30 cm) jelly roll pan. Line the pan with parchment paper and then butter and flour the paper (or spray with Baker's Joy). Set aside.

    While the eggs are still cold, separate the eggs, placing the whites in one bowl and the yolks in another. Cover with plastic wrap and bring to room temperature before using (takes about 30 minutes).

    Meanwhile melt the chocolate in a stainless steel bowl set over a saucepan of simmering water. Set aside.

    In the bowl of your electric mixer (or with a hand mixer) place the egg yolks and 1/4 cup (50 grams) of sugar and beat until this mixture is light and fluffy (about five minutes). (When you slowly raise the beaters, the batter will fall back into the bowl in a slow ribbon.) Beat in the vanilla extract. Add the melted chocolate and beat only to combine. Set aside while you beat the egg whites.

    In a clean mixing bowl, with the whisk attachment, beat the egg whites until foamy. Add the cream of tartar and beat at medium-high speed until soft peaks form. Gradually beat in the remaining 2 tablespoons (28 grams) of sugar until stiff peaks form.

    Gently fold a small amount of the egg whites into the egg yolk mixture using a rubber spatula or whisk to lighten the batter. Fold in the remaining whites just until incorporated. Don't over mix or the batter will deflate. Spread the batter evenly into the prepared pan with an offset spatula. Bake until the cake is puffed, has lost its shine, and springs back when gently pressed, about 15-17 minutes. Remove from oven and place on wire rack to cool. Cover the cake with a clean, slightly damp towel.

    Chocolate Whipped Cream: In a large mixing bowl place the whipping cream, vanilla extract, sugar, and cocoa powder and stir to combine. Cover and chill the bowl and beaters in the refrigerator for at least one hour so the cocoa powder has time to dissolve. Beat the mixture until stiff peaks form.

    Once the cake has cooled, spread with the chocolate whipped cream and gently roll the cake, peeling off the parchment paper as you roll.
