Dessert - Chocolate and Raisin Cake in Multicooker by Brandusa E. - Recipia

The chocolate and raisin cake is made in a Multicooker, without heating the oven. The mixture is prepared from eggs, chocolate milk, cocoa, and flour, then baked in the Philips Multicooker pot. The raisins are placed on top before starting the program, and after baking, the cake should be left in the pot for a few minutes before being turned out. Quick Info Preparation time: not specified in the original recipe Cooking time: 50 minutes Rest time after baking: 5-10 minutes Estimated total time: preparation time plus approximately 55-60 minutes for baking and resting Servings: number not specified; the cake can be sliced after cooling Difficulty: easy Recipe type: dessert in a Multicooker, suitable for a snack or breakfast Ingredients 100 g chocolate 4 eggs 3 cups of flour 1 cup of sugar 150 ml milk 1 packet of baking powder 3 tablespoons of oil 100 g raisins Grated zest of one lemon 2 tablespoons of cocoa A pinch of salt 1 packet of vanilla sugar For the pot: A little butter for greasing the pot Preparation Method 1. Place the eggs in a bowl and add the sugar, vanilla sugar, lemon zest, and salt. Whisk until you achieve a frothy mixture, and the sugar is no longer felt in the composition. 2. Heat the milk well without letting it reduce. Remove it from the heat and add the broken chocolate, oil, and cocoa. Stir until the chocolate melts and the mixture becomes smooth. 3. Let the milk and chocolate mixture cool slightly. Do not pour it hot over the eggs, as they may coagulate. 4. Gradually pour the cooled mixture in a thin stream over the frothy eggs while continuously mixing. Incorporate it gradually until you achieve a uniform composition. 5. Sift the flour and mix it with the baking powder. Add it to the liquid mixture and gently combine. Just mix until no dry flour spots remain. 6. Connect the Philips Multicooker to the power source. Grease the pot with a little butter, including the bottom and, as much as possible, the lower sides of the pot. 7. Pour the batter into the prepared pot and level it slightly. Sprinkle the raisins on top. 8. Close the lid and select the Bake function from the menu. Set the temperature to 150 degrees and the time to 50 minutes, then press Start. 9. After the program ends, let the cake sit in the pot for 5-10 minutes. Then turn it out onto a platter and let it cool before slicing. 10. You can serve it plain or cover it with chocolate cream. The original recipe also mentions chocolate sauce. For kids, it was served with sour cream, a combination they enjoyed. Why I Make This Recipe Often This is a practical cake when you want to use the Multicooker instead of the oven. The ingredients are prepared quickly, and the machine takes care of the baking once you set the Bake program. The chocolate flavor is enhanced by the cocoa and melted chocolate pieces in the milk, while the raisins add sweetness and a different texture. I also like that it can be served in various ways. It is flavorful enough on its own but can be complemented with chocolate cream, chocolate sauce, or sour cream, depending on preferences. Tips Let the milk, chocolate, oil, and cocoa mixture cool before adding it to the eggs. This is the step where it's worth being a little patient. When adding the flour, mix gently and do not overdo it. The composition just needs to be combined. The raisins are sprinkled on top of the batter before baking, as specified in the original recipe. Respect the temperature of 150 degrees and the time of 50 minutes in the Multicooker's Bake program. Settings may vary between models, so it is important to use the Bake function of your Philips Multicooker. Do not turn the cake out immediately after the program ends. The 5-10 minutes of resting in the pot help with handling it. Substitutions The recipe does not specify a particular type of chocolate, so any dessert chocolate can be used without changing the amount of 100 g. No substitutions are indicated for milk, flour, eggs, or raisins. To maintain the proportions of the recipe, it is safest to use the specified ingredients and quantities. If you do not want raisins, they can be omitted, but the cake will lack the dried fruit component specified in the original recipe. Variations The cake can be served plain, without any additions. For a richer dessert, you can cover it with chocolate cream after it has cooled. Another serving option mentioned in the recipe is drizzling chocolate sauce on top. For kids, it can be served with sour cream. This serving method was tested in the original recipe and was well-received. Serving Ideas Cut the cake after it has cooled sufficiently to ensure the slices hold together better. You can serve it as is, alongside a glass of milk. If you choose the cream or chocolate sauce, add them after cooling. Sour cream is placed directly on the slice at the time of serving. Frequently Asked Questions 1. Can I use the Bake program on any Multicooker? The recipe is designed for a Philips Multicooker and uses the Bake function. If your model has a program with the same function, follow the indicated settings: 150 degrees and 50 minutes. The names of the programs may differ from one appliance to another. 2. When should the raisins be added? The raisins are sprinkled on top of the mixture after the batter has been poured into the pot and before closing the lid. 3. Why should the milk and chocolate mixture be cooled? The mixture needs to be less hot before coming into contact with the frothy eggs. It is then added gradually, in a thin stream, while continuously mixing. 4. How long should the cake rest in the pot after baking? After the program ends, the cake should rest in the pot for 5-10 minutes. It can then be turned out onto a platter. 5. How can the chocolate and raisin cake be served? It can be served plain, with milk, with sour cream, with chocolate cream, or with a little chocolate sauce on top. Nutritional Values Values are approximate.
