Directions
- In a blender put 1/2 cup nuts and chop them roughly. Do the same with chocolate.
- Put the egg yolks into a bowl and add sugar. Whip, then add cake flour and melted cooled margarine.
- Add a flat teaspoon baking powder, raisins, chopped chocolate and nuts. You can also add candied fruit.
- Then stir in beaten egg whites of four eggs. Do it carefully using a spoon.
- Silicone mold grease with a small amount of oil. If you use normal form, then it also sprinkle with a little bit of flour. It is better to prepare it in advance.
- Pour the dough into the mold and spread evenly.
- Bake in a preheated oven for 30 - 40 minutes at 160° C. Each oven bakes differently, so watch carefully.
- Before applying the icing let the fruitcake cool completely.
- Chocolate topping is very simple, a great help is the attached video. We need a water bath, which is made by using 2 pots. In the larger cook a little amount of water, and in the smaller pot melt 100 g of any chocolate you like.
- When it´s completely melt, add a teaspoon of butter and 3 tablespoons of milk.
- When the fruitcake cools apply the topping with a heated knife in hot water.
- Serve it after about an hour when the topping cools down.
To find out weather the cake is ready stick a cocktail stick into it, and pull it out, if it´s a non-stick, you're done. Test it not only on the edges but also in the middle of a cake.
