Chocolate Fudge Tahini Cake Food

CHOCOLATE TAHINI CAKE WITH TAHINI FROSTING

Steps:

• For the cake: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease and line the bottoms of two 8-inch cake pans with nonstick cooking spray and set aside.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda and salt. In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the milk, tahini, oil, vanilla and eggs. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir to combine. Whisk in the coffee.
• Pour the batter into the prepared cake pans and bake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 28 minutes. Let cool in the pans on a rack for 10 minutes and then remove to the rack to cool completely.
• For the frosting: In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, mix together the butter and tahini until creamy. Gradually add the confectioners' sugar and mix to combine. Mix in the vanilla, cinnamon and salt.
• Put one cake layer on a serving plate and top with some of the frosting, then top with the second cake layer. Frost the top and sides of the cake and serve at room temperature.

TAHINI FUDGE PIE

Steps:

• For the crust: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease or butter a 9- to 9 1/2-inch pie pan.
• Combine the cookies, espresso powder and salt in a food processor until very finely ground. With the food processor running, drizzle in the butter and blend until combined. Transfer the mixture to the pie pan and pack it very firmly on the bottom and sides. Bake for 6 minutes.
• For the fudge: Meanwhile, melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat, then add the cocoa powder, granulated sugar, espresso powder, salt and heavy cream and whisk to combine. Continue to cook, whisking, until smooth and glossy, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat.
• When the crust is done baking, pour most of the fudge into the crust and spread it evenly around the bottom. Reserve a few spoonfuls to drizzle on top. Stick the crust in the fridge to cool completely while you make the filling.
• For the filling: Combine the cream cheese and tahini in a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment and whip until smooth. Mix in the powdered sugar, vanilla, cinnamon and a pinch or two of salt (if there's salt in the tahini already, you'll just need a little bit or none-you can add salt to taste!), and beat until combined. With the mixer on low, drizzle in the heavy cream, then gradually increase the speed to high and mix until pale and fluffy. Pour the mixture into the cooled crust, then drizzle with the reserved fudge (if it's firmed up by now, you can reheat it gently until it's drizzly), swirl it around, sprinkle with flaky salt if desired, then let set in the fridge for 4 hours or up to overnight. Enjoy!

CHOCOLATE-TAHINI FUDGE CAKE

Steps:

• Place an oven rack in the middle position and preheat the oven to 300 degrees F.
• Grease a 9-inch cake pan with cooking spray or butter. Line the bottom with a parchment round. Set aside.
• In a medium mixing bowl set over a saucepan with barely simmering water over medium-low heat, add the butter, tahini and chocolate chips. Gently cook, stirring occasionally, until just melted and smooth. Whisk in the granulated sugar until combined. Remove from the heat. Add the eggs one at a time, whisking until fully incorporated. Add the vanilla and salt and stir to combine. Add the flour and mix until just combined.
• Pour the cake batter into the prepared pan. Bake for 1 hour to 1 hour and 15 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into the middle comes out with a few fudgy crumbs and the sides pull slightly away from the pan. Cool completely in the pan on a wire rack.
• To assemble the cake, remove the cooled cake onto a platter or cake stand. Cut and serve with a dollop of Tahini Whipped Cream and crumbled halva on top.
• In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, add the heavy cream, powdered sugar and salt. Beat on low speed until incorporated, then increase the speed to medium. Beat to medium peak and then add the tahini. Beat until smooth and just under a stiff peak.
