SIMPLY PERFECT CHOCOLATE POUND CAKE LOAF

Steps:

• Take eggs out of the fridge to come to room temperature (25-30 minutes ahead).
• Preheat oven to 350F (not fan-assisted). with rack in centre of oven.
• Prepare an 8.5 x 4.5-inch or 4 x 9.5-inch loaf pan by spraying with cooking spray, then covering the bottom and sides with parchment paper, letting the parchment extend beyond the sides an inch or so. (If not using parchment, butter and flour the pan really well). *If you only have a 9x5-inch pan, it will work. Your loaf will be longer, wider and shorter, so expect that it will cook through more quickly and check it earlier.
• Measure out the milk. Add the lemon juice to the milk. Stir and let stand while you continue with the batter. (The lemon juice will cause the milk to curdle, so don't be alarmed later on when it's a bit chunky :)
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa, baking soda and salt (omit added salt if using salted butter). Set aside.
• Melt the 1/4 oz of chocolate, either in the microwave for about 30-40 seconds or alternately heat about 1/2-inch of water in a saucepan, remove from heat, then place the chocolate into a ramekin and place the ramekin to sit in the water to melt it. *Make sure no water gets into the ramekin or the chocolate will seize. Stir the chocolate until smooth, then set it aside to cool to tepid while you continue with the batter.
• In a large bowl with an electric mixer or the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the cold butter cubes on medium-high until smooth, about 1 minute. Gradually beat in the sugar. Once all the sugar is added, add the vanilla. Beat the mixture until very light in colour and texture, scraping down the bowl occasionally, about 4 minutes. Gradually beat in the eggs. Reduce the mixer speed to low. Beat in the cooled chocolate.
• Add the flour mixture alternately with the milk, beating well after each addition and scraping down the bowl between additions. (start with 1/3 of the flour, then 1/2 the milk, another 1/3 of the flour, remaining milk, then remaining flour).
• Pour batter into prepared loaf pan and smooth the top.
• Bake loaf in preheated oven for about 50 minutes for a 4x10-inch pan. *Baking time will vary for the 8x4 or 9x5-inch pans, so check and test often after about 45 minutes of baking. Test with a skewer in the centre. The tester should come out fairly dry and clean, with maybe a dry crumb or two on it. The sides of the cake should have pulled away from the side of the pan and the top should be puffed and cracked. The top will spring back when gently pressed with your finger.
• Cool the cake in pan for 10 minutes, then lift out of the pan by grabbing the parchment paper sides. Set onto cooling rack and gently remove the parchment to allow the loaf to cool completely. Store at room temperature, wrapped, for up to 2 days. Cake will also freeze well.

CHOCOLATE SOUR CREAM POUND CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325F. Grease a 10-inch tube pan well and dust with cocoa powder (or flour).
• In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
• In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat together butter and sugar until fluffy.
• Add in eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
• With the mixer on low speed, alternate adding flour mixture and sour cream, beginning and ending with the flour mixture. The batter will be thick at this point.
• With the mixer still on low speed, gradually add the hot water to the batter. After it becomes incorporated into the batter, increase speed to medium for 1 minute, then turn off.
• Pour batter into prepared tube pan. Bake for 1 hour and 20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
• Allow to cool in the pan for at least 15 minutes, then gently slide a knife along the edge to loosen from the pan before inverting the cake onto a serving plate to cool completely.
• Once cake is cool, prepare the ganache. Add chocolate chips to a mixing bowl. Heat cream in a small saucepan over medium-high heat, stirring often, until it is steaming and small bubbles are just beginning to form along the edges of the pan. Do NOT boil the cream.
• Pour the hot cream over the chocolate chips and allow to sit for 5 minutes without stirring. Once the time has elapsed, use a spatula to mix until smooth.
• Let the ganache sit for about 15 minutes, which will allow it to thicken slightly. It will still be pourable, but not super runny at this point. Drizzle over the cooled cake.
