You wouldn't think so, but tomatoes do amazing things to chocolate. The following is a documentation of a chocolate cake with tomato soup in the ganache and the batter itself.
 |
These are the ingredients for the ganache. |
 |
This is the ganache that sits for several hours before you can spread it like frosting, and it hardens almost like the outside of a candy bar. |
 |
Ok, so cocoa powder, tomato soup and eggs looks kinda gross. But add it to the flour mixture and some butter and... |
 |
This is the cake batter. It is the consistency of butter cream frosting. You really could stop here and just eat it. It's incredible. |
 |
This is the finished product, two layers of cake covered with the ganache and surrounded by Piourette cookies. |
 |
A little frosting on each cookie seals the fortress of chocolate with flame!! |
See, doesn't that look FANTASTIC?! It is, I promise. I will share the recipe with you as long as you promise to share some of the extra moist, deeply rich chocolate cake with me.
