  • Title: CHOCOLATE AND CHESTNUT LOAF
    Categories: Desserts, Cakes
    Yield: 10 servings

    15 1/2 oz Can unsweetened chestnut
    Puree
    6 oz Unsalted (sweet) butter
    4 oz Castor sugar (v. fine grain)
    8 oz Darkest plain chocolate
    2 tb Brandy
    Piped cream (optional)
    Maron glace (optional)

    Recommended to make 1 day ahead.

    Melt Chocolate (this should be at least 55% cocoa –
    75% is great!).

    Put better in bowl. Beat until pale and creamy. Add
    sugar and beat until fluffy andf light. Add chestnut
    puree and beat until thoroughly blended and smooth. (a
    mixer is so much easier!!! I didn’t have one and found
    the best way to make sure it wasn’t lumpy was to press
    the puree through a sieve first – interesting
    texture!).

    Add melted chocolate, brandy and 1 tb of water. Mix
    thoroughly.

    Brush a 2lb bread tin lightly with oil and line with
    greaseproof paper and brush LIGHTLY with oil.

    Put mixture into tin – flatten top and place lightly
    oiled greaseproof paper on top. Cover tin with foil
    and refigerate for at least 8 hours.

    Serve straight from fridge optionally decorated with
    piped cream and/or maron glace.

    Note: This is a VERY rich desert; a 3/4 inch slice is
    usually enough!

    Time: about an hour (+8 hours cooling)
