Brownie chocolate cake in a slow cooker is baked in about 40-60 minutes (depending on the capacity and volume of your kitchen appliance). It is worth noting that such an unusual dessert came to our country from North America. And today this magnificent and very tasty cake is very popular among those who can not imagine their life without homemade baking and chocolate. So let's figure out together how to properly cook Brownie biscuit in a slow cooker so that it turns out to be as soft and tender as possible.
By the way, those people who do not yet have such a kitchen appliance can also bake the presented dessert. To do this, they will need a regular detachable form and an oven. Otherwise, the method of preparing the chocolate product remains the same.
Brownie Cake in the Panasonic Multicooker: a step-by-step recipe for cooking
To prepare such a delicious and delicate dessert you must purchase:
- dark chocolate without any inclusions - 200 g or 2 standard tiles;
- fresh butter - 170 g;
- sifted white flour - from 100 g (add at your own discretion);
- fine granulated sugar - 200 g;
- table soda (extinguish with only 6% apple cider vinegar) - a dessert spoon;
- small sea salt - a small pinch;
- large chicken eggs - 3 pcs.;
- walnuts or almonds - 110 g;
- Refined vegetable oil - 15 ml (for lubrication of the form).
Base kneading process
Before baking a Brownie cake in a slow cooker, mix the chocolate base well. Making this dough too thick is highly discouraged. It should be quite fluid and viscous (as for Charlotte). If you neglect this advice and pour a lot of flour, then the dessert will turn out tough and tasteless. Thus, to prepare the base, it is necessary to break the dark chocolate bars, put them in a bowl with fresh butter and, stirring constantly, melt in a water bath. As a result, you should get a homogeneous mass, which should be slightly cooled.
While the chocolate-oily mixture cools, it is necessary to tackle the processing of nuts. The purchased product needs to be washed well, dried
in a microwave or in a pan, and then crushed into large crumbs. Next, the nuts should be put in the cooled chocolate mass along with granulated
sugar, slaked table soda, beaten chicken eggs and small sea salt. Last of all, a small amount of flour should be added to the base. All ingredients must be mixed so that the dough becomes as homogeneous as possible and without any lumps.
The process of forming a dish
As mentioned above, a brownie chocolate biscuit in a slow cooker does not bake for very long. But, before preparing such a dessert, it should be correctly placed in the bowl of the device. To do this, lubricate the container with refined sunflower oil (including the sides), and then pour out the entire kneaded base. If you are afraid that the cake will stick to the bowl, then instead of vegetable fat it can be covered with parchment paper.
Dessert heat treatment
After the dough is laid out in the capacity of the device, it should be closed and put the program “Baking” for 60 minutes. A brownie cake in a slow cooker is considered to be fully prepared if the toothpick stuck in the biscuit remains dry and without a sticking of the moist base. Otherwise, the dessert preparation time can be increased by another 10 minutes.
The finished cake should be removed from the multicooker, placed on a flat plate or cutting board and completely cooled. At the same time, you can do the cooking of delicious toppings or chocolate ganache.
Essential ingredients for cream
Chocolate brownie "Brownie" in a slow cooker can be decorated with any cream. Moreover, it is recommended to be applied only on top, and not cut the cake into thin cakes.
So, for cooking ganache we need:
- fat cream - 200 ml;
- icing sugar - ½ cup;
- butter - 75 g;
- dark chocolate - 90 g.
The process of making sweet cream
Brownie cake in a slow cooker will turn out to be more tasty and beautiful if the baked biscuit is additionally poured with independently made chocolate ganache. To do this, pour 150 ml of cream in a metal bowl, add icing sugar to them and put on low heat, bring to a boil. Next, the resulting mass should be removed from the stove and immediately add a broken bar of
dark chocolate, as well as fresh butter. When all the ingredients have melted and form an aromatic thick mixture, you can proceed to the direct decoration of the dish. To do this, ready-made biscuit must be placed on a large cake box and decorate its edges with finished chocolate balls from the Nesquik breakfast. We need this procedure not only to make the cake beautiful, but also to prevent the chocolate ganache from spreading over the dishes, this sweet barrier will prevent it. Thus, the cooled cream should be completely poured onto the surface of the biscuit, and then with a thin stream of the remaining cream, make a chaotic pattern on it.
How to present the cake to the table?
After the Brownie chocolate dessert (in the Redmond crock-pot is prepared in the same way) is shaped and decorated, it must be placed in the refrigerator and kept in it for at least an hour. Next, the cake needs to be cut into portioned pieces and presented to the guests along with hot strong tea. Enjoy your meal!
