While I’m obsessing about cooking (in a winter funk) allow me to share my two favorite recipes of all time...
1. This date cake. No, srsly. And I am a “dark chocolate or nothing” devotee. It takes some work (and a food processor for the dates) but it’s without compare; perfection.
It’s a Karen Mordechai recipe from Sunday Suppers. Couldn’t find online except this reprint from Smitten Kitchen: smittenkitchen.com/2014/11/date-c…
(Dates are super sweet, but rich in magnesium, potassium & iron. They are positively narcotic in this cake—it’s like chocolate soufflé or tiramisu, only better.)
(Note: you do have to use a few tablespoons of whiskey for the toffee syrup topping. And you have to use heavy whipping cream & whip your own cream for the topping, with no sugar, for the contrast.)
