Como fazer Julia Child's Reine De Saba Queen Of Sheba Cake

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Position oven rack in the lower middle.
  2. Melt 6 ounces of bittersweet chocolate in a saucepan over low heat with 2 tablespoons of rum or strong coffee. Set aside to cool slightly.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) of unsalted butter until light and fluffy. Gradually add 1 ¾ cups granulated sugar and beat for 1 minute.
  4. Beat in 4 large egg yolks one at a time, ensuring each is fully incorporated before adding the next.
  5. In a separate clean bowl, beat 4 large egg whites with a pinch of salt until soft peaks form. Add 2 tablespoons of cream of tartar and continue beating until stiff, glossy peaks form.
  6. Gradually add 2 tablespoons of granulated sugar to the egg whites while beating, continuing until stiff peaks are achieved.
  7. Gently fold the melted chocolate mixture into the yolk mixture. Stir in ½ cup finely chopped almonds and 1 teaspoon almond extract.
  8. Using a rubber spatula, carefully fold in ¼ of the egg whites into the chocolate mixture to lighten it.
  9. Gently fold in the remaining egg whites in two additions, alternating with 1 cup of all-purpose flour, until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  10. Pour batter into a greased and floured 8 ½-inch round cake pan. Tilt pan to evenly distribute batter.
  11. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted 2 inches from the edge comes out clean. The center should move slightly when the pan is gently shaken.
  12. Let the cake cool in the pan for 15 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
  13. Once completely cool, store or frost as desired.
