May 29, 2008Don't you wish you worked in my department?*Don't forget to preheat the oven.Tomorrow, being as it is the last Friday of the month, is Random Dessert Friday at work. It is also one friend/coworker's last day, so I made him his favorite dessert: And another friend/coworker's birthday was earlier this month, so I wanted to make her a cake. Unfortunately, she can't eat wheat. Luckily, Chris came to the rescue with her One-Bowl Flourless Chocolate Cake recipe. (I mostly followed it - the birthday girl really likes her chocolate sweet rather than dark, so I used semisweet in the cake instead of bittersweet, and milk chocolate in the glaze instead of semisweet.) The recipe included that dreaded phrase: invert the cake onto a plate. I'm always afraid that my cake won't come out of the pan at that point or will fall apart or crack or something. So when it didn't, I was so proud of my inversion-onto-plate skills that I had to take a picture: And here's the completed cake, smothered in glaze: I think it will be a yummy Friday at the office tomorrow.

Hi, Kat! Long time no see. Jen sent me a link to this post. Yes, I'd like to have more info about current openings. Any place you work just has to be interesting.... Bill (Gryphon) Posted by: Bill Kubeck at May 30, 2008 12:25 AMYou'll have to let me know how it tastes! It looks wonderful. Mmmm... chocolate... I've done variations like that, too, depending on my target audience and what sort of chocolate I have in the chocolate drawer. Posted by: Chris at May 30, 2008 10:29 AMOooh, yummy! I love to bake, but don't do it often unless I bring in the results to my co-workers. Maybe I may have to institute a day like this at my office! Posted by: robin at May 30, 2008 12:56 PMhmm. that's a new version of it [it=flourless chocolate cake] to me. the one we normally have has a dash of instant coffee in it. looks yummy... maybe i'll make me one today. i've not had cake in a while. :) Post a comment
