Marble cake with chocolate (marbre au chocolat) by Paul Bocuse

Category: Confectionery

Ingredients
eggs (4 pcs. medium-sized, weight in shell !!)	240gr
flour	240gr
powdered sugar (I calmly take sugar)	240gr
butter	240gr
salt	pinch
bitter chocolate	50gr
baking powder (no Bocuse)	2 tsp
almond extract (or just vanilla)	2 tsp

Cooking method

• Marble cake by Paul Bocuse (Sonadora)

• Paul Bocuse is one of the most famous chefs of the 20th century. Rather, even the most famous. Three times Michelin-starred chef. The most prestigious international culinary award today is the Golden Bocuse.
• His motto: "No truffles, no black caviar ..." In fact, he cooked with truffles and the most refined ingredients. But for the everyday menu, it has a whole arsenal of recipes that will delight you with their simplicity and good quality. He called the book dedicated to him very simply: "My best recipes."
• This, of course, is a cupcake in our understanding, not a cake. Easy to execute and memorize. Everything is repelled by the weight of the eggs (in the shell !!!). Weigh the eggs, and how much to add the rest is easy to remember. Exactly the same amount as the weight of eggs in the shell: butter, flour, sugar. All. Extracts (anything))) allow you to simply diversify the base flavor of this cake.
• 1. Remove eggs and butter from the refrigerator 1.5 hours before cooking.
• 2. Beat eggs with sugar until white.
• 3. Add sifted flour, baking powder and salt to the eggs, mix.
• 4. Add butter and almond extract to the dough and mix.
• 5. Divide the dough into 2 equal parts, add melted chocolate to one of them and mix thoroughly.
• 6. Put in a prepared form in turn and randomly: a spoonful of chocolate dough, a spoonful of light. Bake at 160 degrees (with convection) until tender. Willingness to check with a skewer, since it will take different amounts of time in different forms. In the form of an ordinary loaf, it took me about 45 minutes.
• 

Note

Bocuse has no baking powder in the recipe. The cake should be loosened during baking due to the beating of eggs, the principle of a biscuit. But I add. For the stability of the result. The dough is painfully heavy and I like it when it is well porous. With almond extract, a wonderful combination is obtained: nut-chocolate.

Scarecrowwhat a smiling cupcake you got!

[marina-asti]

marina-asti,

Well, there it is necessary, according to the principle of Zebra (remember such a cupcake from Soviet times), put the chocolate and light dough in a mold and then use a knitting needle to hold the dough in the dough. The dough does not flow, so it's impossible to make strips straight, but a kalyak-malyak is quite))).

I remember a zebra, a friend baked, I remember the look, there is no taste), I'm not a cupcake person) I read the recipe and the first thought is what could replace 240g of butter?))))

But the cool smile turned out to be a knitting needle!
P.S. especially since I have no needles ..

[marina-asti]

marina-asti,

A very famous saying: the 3 pillars of French cuisine are butter, .... butter and ... butter!))).

Zebra's dough texture was different. It was pouring. And it was poured one by one into the center of the mold. This dough does not flow, it is held in a soft, whipped ball.

Probably can be replaced with cottage cheese. I remember that our Alexandra here on the forum, who specialized in reducing calories, usually took zero cottage cheese as the main ingredient for replacing butter.
A million years ago I bought a pack of wooden sticks in Metro, I don’t remember why. I still use them. Year 4, probably))).

[Scarecrow]

Scarecrowwhat a crumb and cut are wonderful! girl_love: Took it, thanks, Nata! I also pierce everything with such sticks!

[Scarecrow]

Scarecrow, are sticks skewers?))
The cottage cheese is probably not the same in consistency, I will not spoil even such a wonderful recipe, a wonderful cut should remain so.

[Nata]

Wonderful cake! And in form, and in content, and in structure! Nata, Thank you!

[Nata]

Nata, after your control in the head banana cake, I follow your sweet recipes with special attention, even with apprehension sometimes suddenly again you have to age and die for weeks!

An interesting recipe, thanks! I will definitely bake such a cake-cake - we love to bite something like that for tea, even though we do not like it especially sweet. Yeah, except for the banana cake.

By the way, if anything, this pie can be frozen cut and pulled out an hour before the guests arrive?

[Tricia]

Tricia,

Have you tried Earl Gray? Such an elegant cupcake, such a delicate taste - super.

This cupcake is solid for its simplicity. In memorization and execution))). These are his recipes for every day.

Never tried freezing muffins. If you bake, they drank a piece and freeze it. You will try it - as it is after defrosting.

Never tried freezing muffins.

Yes laaaadno !!!

My muffins live in the freezer all the time, they tolerate freezing well !!!

The main thing is to defrost correctly ...

[marina-asti]

marina-asti, these are such wooden thin sticks with a pointed end, the length is different. You can check the readiness of baking, and hold the food together during cooking, etc. And they are eternal.

Nata, the recipe is directly asked to do. So on the trail. once (I bake now lean, now non-fast) I will definitely make it. Thank you

[Scarecrow]

Scarecrow, appetizing, beautiful, super, thank you.

[lucik396]

lucik396, Earl gray - a variety of tea with bergamont, on a pack d. B. written by Earl if you type on the bread maker in the search for Earl gray - then both a cupcake and a cake with that name will come out

Tricia,

Have you tried Earl Gray? Such an elegant cupcake, such a delicate taste - super.

Yes, we ran with our St. Petersburg meeting, I rolled my curd cheesecakes, Schaub did not poison the people. Nobody swore, so you can exhale and bake the cupcakes.

And why did it not immediately occur to me to freeze them? I would have baked it so long ago!
But now Earl Gray and this one I will definitely make and freeze

Aha, it remains to drag my husband away from the khachapuriAdjarian gluttony, and then for the last two and a half weeks I have only done them - I really turn back.

But now - that's it, no khachapurev!
Earl is the first in line to bake, this is the second!

[Scarecrow]

Scarecrow, Nata, delicious cupcake, I confirm. Here here I shared the recipe. I took more chocolate current into the dough.

The main thing is to defrost correctly

Kroshik, Innus, is it correct - how is it?

[Nata]

Natawhat a positive cupcake 🔗

[Sonadora]

Sonadora,

Oh, I'm stuck. What did I put separately then?)))
Now I'll write to the moderators - how they decide, maybe just move it to your topic.

Although I have added baking powder. This is my personal supplement. For stability. Without it, the cake is denser and Bocuse really does not add baking powder, the cake rises slightly due to beating the eggs. Although marbled cake is very famous and comes in different varieties. I'll add the recipe info)).

And then let it be a separate topic in this form)).

then let it be a separate topic

Of course, don't delete. Maybe your description will inspire and encourage someone to try this cupcake.

[lucik396]

lucik396,

What did you do? Marble? Why did the oil flow? Was it badly interfered?

Hmm, in my case "failed" is absolutely inappropriate. It is impossible to leave children without a holiday.

[Lisichkalal]

Lisichkalal,

Any cupcake can fail. It may not depend on the recipe)). Would you like to try the curd portions? Very comfortably. what exactly are portioned. In any market, paper capsules are now practically sold for baking (such paper molds), insert them into metal molds and bake portioned cottage cheese muffins. Such a cupcake is put into the handle beautifully and immediately.

In general, this cupcake is very simple. Observe more closely all instructions for its manufacture. Beat eggs with sugar well (increase in volume by 2-3 times) and beat in the butter (take good butter, not spread, etc.). Get groceries in advance. The butter should be completely softened and smeared, the eggs should be at room temperature.That is, there are no unnecessary operations in confectionery.

[Nata]

Nata, thank you very much for your answer!
In the case of portioned ones, I do not have a metal mold, and I don’t know how to bring this beauty to the garden later, I need some kind of large dish so as not to stack the cupcakes on top of each other, I will suddenly damp (((and I’m also afraid, that they can crack on top and will be ugly, but I definitely don’t want to decorate them, I’m still far from that.
And another question, tell me, please, how to store the cupcake? How long before the feast can it be prepared? Will it dry up?

[Lisichkalal]

Lisichkalal,

I think that the maximum for a day. Better to cook in the evening and carry it in the morning. For every firefighter, buy 2 servings of food or another set of products for others, some kind of cupcake, so that you feel calmer: I'll ruin this one - I'll bake another!))) And when it's calmer, your hands work better and everything works out. Don't overdo it with the oven temperature.

[Nata]

I have a cupcake for 8 pieces))), there are small cupcakes (that's what they call it) and the top is cracking. Here in it I made several times according to the same recipe. For home, normul, but in the kindergarten I don't know, the little ones are so cracked) unadorned even.

Nata, like I understood everything, but scary! There would be no way to cook a piece of meat, ehh, and here are pies)))

[Svetlana]

Svetlana, firstly, to make a cream, and that would not drip, and to decorate it is necessary to adapt. Secondly, where is this beauty then stored in the amount of 30 pieces, thirdly, what to put it on, and finally, how to carry it all to the garden? You can't cover it from above, and if on plates, then where can you get so many hands.
