Recipe's preparation

    Chocolate Mud Cake
    1. Preheat oven to 160°C. Grease and line a cake tin.
    2. Place chocolate in TM bowl and grate 10 sec / speed 9.
    3. Add butter, raw sugar, brown sugar, cocoa and Baileys and mix 2 mins / 50°C / speed 5.
    4. Allow to cool for 15 mins and then add eggs and mix 5 sec / speed 5.
    5. Add flour, baking powder, bi carb soda and salt and mix 10 sec / speed 5. Scrape down and repeat until all combined.
    6. Pour mixture into cake tin and bake 40-45 mins or until a skewer comes out clean (ideally you want to see some moist crumbs stuck to it. This is one cake you don't want to over bake so better to be a little under than over). The top of the cake will be a little cracked but this is normal for a mud cake.
    7. Remove from oven and cool in tin 10 mins before removing and then allow cake to cool completely.
    2. Ganache
      1. Place chocolate in TM bowl and grate 10 sec / speed 9.
      2. Add cream, Baileys, salt and butter and mix 2 mins / 50°C / speed 5.
      3. Place TM bowl in fridge to cool down and thicken for at least one hour. Every 15 mins give the ganache a little stir to keep the temperature even and the ganache smooth.
      4. Once ganache is slightly thickened, turn cake over (so you are then pouring the ganache on to a flat top).
      5. If desired you can cut out a whole in the middle of the cake with a knife or round cookie cutter to make it a ring cake. This also makes a cake very easy to cut into pieces.
    To clean Thermomix bowl:
    1. Pour a glass of milk in TM bowl and mix 5 sec / speed 8.
    2. Heat milk 5 mins / 80°C / speed 4.
    3. Enjoy warm chocolate milk. No wasted chocolate!

Tip

In hindsight I think next time I would do the ganache first and while that is in the fridge then make the cake.   I was very impatient waiting for the ganache to thicken when my cake had already cooled enough to be able to spread the ganache on!  tmrc_emoticons.)

 

I used my home made Baileys in this recipe too - which makes it cheaper!

    I'm planning on making this cake for a friends 40th this weekend. Could you please let me know what you used to decorate the side of the cake? Is it some type of nut or crushed up Crunchie Chocolate? Thank you

    Submitted by LizzieM on 13. September 2014 - 07:50.

    Have made this cake several times & my friends &family love it. It's easy & is a great celebration cake.i think the ganache would be good on its own (in small quantities) as a dessert with berries...or as a tart filling.

    Absolutely amazing cake! Hot choc to cap it off was the best.

    One extra bonus you forgot to mention.... The house smells absolutely scrumptious after cooking the cake.

    I just made this tonight and I have one word........ AMAZING!!! 

     

    As per your tip I made the ganache first, and cooked in a 24cm spring form tin, then cut the middle out with a cookie cutter and proceeded to slather that (still warm) piece with ganache as I just couldn't wait for it to cool. Best cake ever!

     

    Thank you! I used my home made baileys in this recipe too tmrc_emoticons.)

  • i should have read the

    Submitted by smiley6 on 8. December 2013 - 09:21.

    i should have read the comments more carefully...( makes quite a large cake ).. i didn't  know what size of caketin to

    use...the mixture didn't look as that much, so i used a 20cm springform....obviously that was the wrong one, way too small..

    it didn't go over, all the way to the top, but was still very soft in the middle...i cut the middle part out with a cookiecutter, as mentioned in the recipe....tastes amazing....my question :

     

    what size springform did other members use ?? would a 24cm springform be correct ?? i would love to make this

    cake again for next weekend.....it really tastes amazing...

     

    any help is very much appreciated, thank you

    I made this yesterday and don't think I have ever tasted anything so good! My dinner guests were most impressed and have placed orders for Chritmas!I used milk chocolate instead of dark chocolate and am glad, as it was really rich. It will be a feature on my fave list!
