Gateau Lawrence





Ingredients:


6 陆 ounces bittersweet (60 percent cocoa) chocolate (Ghiradelli)


12 tablespoons (1 陆 sticks) unsalted butter, at room temperature


2/3 cup of sugar


1 2/3 cups (7 ounces) ground sliced almonds (grind in a food processor or blender)


4 large eggs, separated





For the icing:


3 陆 ounces bittersweet (60 percent cocoa) chocolate (Ghiradelli)


3 tablespoons unsalted butter





Method:


Heat the oven to 300掳F. Line a 10-inch spring-form pan with parchment paper (not wax paper). Chop the chocolate into small pieces and melt it in a heatproof bowl over a saucepan of simmering water (or use a double boiler if you have one). Remove from the heat and cool until tepid. Cream together the butter and sugar until soft and creamy using an electric mixer. Add the ground almonds, egg yolks, and melted chocolate, and beat until evenly blended. Whisk the egg whites until stiff, add to the cake mixture, and quickly fold in until evenly mixed using a rubber spatula. Pour into the prepared pan and bake for 35 minutes. A light crust will form on the top and the middle should still be a little squishy. Leave to cool a little before carefully removing the sides. Cool on a wire rack. Slide a long knife under the cake to release it from the parchment, but leave the cake on the paper.





For the icing:


Melt the chocolate and butter in a heatproof bowl over a saucepan of simmering water. Spread evenly over the top of the cake and leave to set.

please trust me when I say, you do not need to master this any longer. The search for hthe best recipe or great bisquits has ended for me. Go to Walmart and buy the buttermilk Walmart brand or Mary B's brand from their frozen food section. Dont get Pilsbury, its only ok...not as good.





Follow baking instructions and put onto a foiled and sprayed cookie sheet for easy removal and cleanup.
