Gothic blackberry velvet cake

Ingredients

Making Blackberry Velvet Cake

2 ½ cups flour

1 ½ cups caster sugar

1 cup buttermilk

1 cup softened unsalted butter

4 large eggs

1 ½ tsp vanilla extract

2 teaspoons baking powder

½ tsp baking soda

¼ teaspoon salt

½ cup blackberry puree (fresh or frozen blackberries, crushed)

Purple or red food coloring (optional, more vibrant colors)

Make blackberry filling

1 ½ cups fresh or frozen blackberries

¼ cup granulated sugar

1 tablespoon lemon juice

1 tablespoon cornstarch

2 tablespoons water

Making Chocolate Ganache

1 cup heavy cream

1 ½ cup semi-sweet or dark chocolate, chopped

1 tablespoon unsalted butter (optional for added gloss)

Preparation method:

Prepare the velvet cake and blackberry layer:

Preheat oven to 175 °C (350 ° F). Grease and line two 8-inch round cake pans with parchment paper.

In a medium bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside for later use.

Cream butter and sugar in a blender until fluffy (about 3-5 minutes).

Add eggs one by one, beating well after each addition. Add vanilla extract.

In a small bowl, combine the blackberry puree with the buttermilk. If you want a richer color, add food coloring.

Add dry ingredients and buttermilk mixture alternately to the butter mixture, starting with dry ingredients and ending with dry ingredients. Mix on low speed until well combined.

Divide batter into cake tins with smooth surface.

Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until batter is removed with a toothpick. After cooling in the molds for 10 minutes, remove to a grid rack.

Prepare the blackberry filling:

In a small saucepan, cook the blackberries, sugar and lemon juice over medium heat, stirring until the blackberries are crumbled (5-7 minutes).

In a bowl add the cornstarch and water, mix well and add the blackberries. Stir as you cook until filling thickens (1-2 minutes).

Remove from heat and cool completely.

Prepare the chocolate ganache:

Heat the heavy cream in a pan until it boils, then remove from the heat.

Pour the hot cream over the chopped chocolate in a bowl. Let sit for 2-3 minutes, then stir until smooth. Add butter to add gloss (optional) and cool until thick but still runny.

Assemble the cake:

Flatten the cake layers as necessary to smooth the surface.

Place a layer of sponge cake on a plate and coat it with a thin layer of ganache as a spacer layer.

Spread the blackberry filling on top of the first layer of ganache.

Place the second layer of sponge cake and pour the remaining ganache on top, allowing it to drip down the sides.

Final touch:

Allow ganache to set at room temperature or in the refrigerator for about 20-30 minutes.

Garnish with fresh blackberries or chocolate skulls for a gothic look.
