Aoife’s Flourless Chocolate Cake

Bake a flourless chocolate cake with Farmgate Cafe, Cork

https://www.cutoutandkeep.net/projects/aoifes-flourless-chocolate-cake • Posted by A Bite To Eat

This flourless chocolate cake was introduced by our baker Aoife for our coeliac customers, but it’s turned out to be one of the most popular desserts loved by all the chocolate fiends. We serve it with a spoon of crème friache from a local organic dairy and often with a little berry compote in the summer. We get our chocolate from Niall in the wonderful Chocolate Shop downstairs in the Market, along with all the other ingredients. The Market is our larder and we’re very lucky to have it at the end of our stairs!
