Chocolate Flourless Cake Recipe
Ingredients
- Dark Chocolate
- Butter
- Cocoa Powder
- Mixed Berries
- Eggs
- Coffee
- Sugar
Instructions
In a double boiler, melt 1 1/2 lbs. of dark chocolate and 21 ounces of butter together. While that's melting, cracking a dozen eggs in a bowl. Combine the sugar and hot coffee together, stir until blended. Pour the coffee mixture in with the melted butter and chocolate. In a separate bowl, scramble your eggs. Using the tempering method, slowly combine the two bowls of ingredients. Prepare your water bath with the pan being sprayed with cooking oil and dusted with sugar twice. Slide the pans into the oven at 325 degrees or 300 for convection for 1 hour and 10 minutes. Place your cake in the refrigerator after it reaches room temperature to cool for a few hours. Place a cake board on top of the pan and flip it upside down. Use a baking torch to release the cake from the pan. Decorate your cake with fresh mixed berries and cocoa powder. Slice and enjoy!

Oven-Roasted Curried Eggplant Recipe
Ingredients
- 1 Eggplant
- 1 Lemon
- Curry Powder
- Salt
- Pepper
- Olive Oil
Instructions
Pre-heat your oven to 425 degrees ( if you have a convection oven, pre-heat it to 400 degrees.) Cut both ends of your eggplant off and slice the vegetable in half. Cut each half into long strips and place them on a baking sheet on top of parchment paper. Coat the eggplant strips with olive oil (not too heavily.)

Retrieve from the oven, and squeeze fresh lemon over top the curried eggplant. Plate your appetizer and enjoy!
