Steamed Orange Chocolate Cake Ingredients

  • 1/4 Cup Butter
  • 1/2 Cup sugar
  • 1/2 Cup evaporated milk
  • orange zest
  • 2 tablespoons orange juice
  • 1 large Egg
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1/2 Cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 Cup cocoa powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon Baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 Cup whipping cream
  • orange zest
  • 3 tablespoons orange juice
  • 1 Cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions
 

  • Combine butter, sugar, evaporated milk, orange zest, and juice in a small saucepan. Cook over low heat until sugar is dissolved.
  • In a bowl, lightly beat egg and vanilla. Add butter-sugar mixture. Whisk together until combined.
  • Sift together flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and baking powder. Gradually add dry ingredients to milk-egg mixture.
  • Pour cake batter into a 5-inch cake pan and cover with foil. Place a wire rack inside a large pot. Pour in enough water to create steam. Place cake pan on top of the rack and cover the pot with a lid. Steam over medium heat for 30 to 35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the middle of the cake comes out clean. Set aside to cool.
  • Meanwhile, make the ganache: Combine cream, orange zest, and orange juice in a saucepan. Cook over medium heat until warmed. Pour hot cream over chocolate chips and stir until chocolate has melted.
  • Place chocolate cake on a wire rack. Pour ganache over cake, making sure to glaze all sides. Let stand at room temperature to set.
