<strong>Ingredients and method for the dark chocolate torte</strong> 135g dark chocolate (55 to 70 per cent) 60g unsalted butter 160g large eggs 80g brown sugar 25g almond powder 250g dark chocolate 50ml corn oil Gently melt the butter and chocolate together over low heat in a bain-marie. Remove from heat once melted. Mixture should be body temperature. If hotter, allow to cool. Whisk the sugar and eggs together into a sabayon, or light mousse, with soft peaks. Fold in the melted butter and chocolate. Fold the almond powder into the mixture, mixing well. Pour the mixture into a 36cm x 31cm rectangle frame that has been lined with aluminium foil and baking paper. Bake for 30 minute at 160 degrees.

To make your chocolate coating, melt 250g of dark chocolate in a bain-marie with 50ml of corn oil. <strong>Ingredients and method for salted caramel sauce</strong> 200g caster sugar 180g whipping cream 36g glucose 40g unsalted butter 18g salt 1 vanilla pod Make a “dry” caramel by melting the sugar in a pan over a medium heat.
