Chocolate Potato Cake
Discover a rich and unique dessert with this Chocolate Potato Cake recipe. Made with creamy mashed potatoes, dark chocolate, and a touch of sweetness
Ingredients
- 10.5 oz (300 g) potatoes
- 3 large eggs
- 3.5 oz (100 g) dark chocolate (70% cocoa)
- 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter (softened, divided use)
- 1/2 cup (100 g) granulated sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla sugar (or 1 tsp vanilla extract)
- 1/3 cup (50 g) potato starch
- A pinch of salt
Method
- Prepare the potatoes:
Wash the potatoes thoroughly, then boil them in salted water or steam them for 20–25 minutes until tender. Peel and mash them into a smooth purée, then set aside to cool slightly. - Melt the chocolate:
Break the dark chocolate into small pieces and melt it with 7 tablespoons (100 g) of butter over a double boiler, stirring until smooth and glossy. - Combine the base ingredients:
In a large mixing bowl, combine the mashed potatoes with the melted chocolate mixture. Stir in the sugar, vanilla sugar (or vanilla extract), potato starch, and egg yolks until smooth and well-blended. - Whip the egg whites:
In a separate bowl, beat the egg whites with a pinch of salt until they form stiff peaks. Gently fold the whipped egg whites into the potato-chocolate mixture, taking care not to deflate the batter. - Bake the cake:
Grease a loaf pan or cake tin with butter and pour in the batter. Smooth the top with a spatula. Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (180°C) for 30–40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. - Cool and serve:
Allow the cake to cool slightly in the pan before turning it out onto a wire rack. Let it cool completely before serving. This cake is best enjoyed chilled.
