Zubereitung von Sesame Spice Cake With Chocolate Orange Glaze
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and lightly flour a 10-cup bundt pan.
- Pulse 1 cup pitted Medjool dates in a food processor until finely chopped. Place in a small bowl and cover with 1/2 cup boiling water. Let stand while preparing other ingredients.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, and 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves.
- In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar, and 3/4 cup packed light brown sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in 1/2 cup tahini and then add 4 large eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with 1 cup plain yogurt, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
- Stir in 1/4 cup orange juice, 1 tablespoon orange zest, and the drained dates. Fold in 1 cup chopped walnuts or pecans (optional).
- Pour batter into the prepared bundt pan and bake for 40-45 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes before inverting onto a wire rack to cool completely.
- While the cake cools, prepare the glaze: In a small saucepan, combine 1/2 cup heavy cream, 6 ounces semi-sweet chocolate, 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, and 2 tablespoons orange juice.
- Cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until the chocolate is melted and the mixture is smooth.
- Remove from heat and stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Gradually whisk in 2 cups powdered sugar until smooth and thickened.
- Stir in 1 tablespoon orange zest. Pour glaze evenly over the cooled cake, letting it drizzle down the sides.
- Allow the glaze to set before serving. Enjoy!
