Gluten free chocolate torte instructions
- The day before you want to serve the torte soak the cherries and raisins in the brandy. Cover and leave overnight..
- When you are ready to makes the torte, place broken chocolate and butter in a heatproof bowl and melt over a pan of simmering water on a very low heat. Do not let the bowl touch the water.After about 5 minutes the melted chocolate and butter mix should be glossy and smooth.
- Remove the bowl from over the water and cool the chocolate mixture for a few minute. Stir..
- Fold in the lightly whipped double cream, followed by chopped pistachios, fruit soaked in brandy and chopped gluten-free biscuits..
- Mix well and spoon into the prepared cake tin. Cover with cling film and chill in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours. (I usually make a day in advance to really bring out the flavours)..
- When you are ready to serve, remove from cake tin, place on a serving plate and dust with cocoa powder. Serve with cream and soft fruit if they are in season..
