Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C).
- Grease and line a 9-inch (23cm) round cake pan with parchment paper.
- In a medium-sized saucepan, combine the butter and white chocolate.
- Over low heat, gently melt them together while stirring continuously until smooth. Once melted, remove the pan from the heat.
- Add the sugar and milk to the melted butter and white chocolate mixture. Stir well until the sugar dissolves.
- Let the mixture cool slightly.
- Beat the eggs lightly in a separate small bowl.
- Once the mixture is cool enough, add the beaten eggs and stir to combine.
- In a large mixing bowl, sift together the all-purpose white wheat flour and self-raising flour.
- Make a well in the center of the flour mixture and pour in the wet ingredients.
- Using a spatula or wooden spoon, gently fold the wet and dry ingredients together until just combined. Do not overmix to ensure a tender cake.
- Roughly chop the pistachio nuts and coconut meat if necessary.
- Fold in the chopped pistachios, dried cranberries, and coconut meat until evenly distributed.
- Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan.
- Smooth the top with a spatula.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 60-70 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. The top should be lightly golden.
- Allow the cake to cool in the pan for about 15-20 minutes.
- Then, transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
- While the cake is cooling, whip the heavy whipping cream until it forms stiff peaks. This can be served on top or alongside the cake.
- Once the cake has completely cooled, slice and serve with a dollop of whipped cream if desired.
- Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days.
Tips:
- Make sure to use high-quality white chocolate for the best flavor and smoothest texture.
- When melting the white chocolate and butter, do so gently to avoid scorching or burning; use a double boiler if possible.
- Chop the pistachios and dried cranberries roughly to ensure they distribute evenly throughout the cake and provide a balanced texture.
- Allow the cake to cool completely before slicing to achieve clean cuts and avoid crumbling.
- Store the cake in an airtight container in the refrigerator to keep it fresh. Bring it to room temperature before serving for the best taste and texture.
Your White Chocolate Mud Cake is now ready to be enjoyed. The harmonious blend of white chocolate, pistachios, cranberries, and coconut results in a cake that's both rich and refreshing. This dessert is a true celebration of festive flavors and is destined to become a holiday favorite. Serve with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an extra touch of indulgence.
