Directions
Chocolate Doberge Cake, A special Louisiana dessert so sinfully rich and loaded with flavor The traditional doberge is made with yellow cake, but this chocolate version kicks it up just a notch Cooling time not included in preparation time , This recipe was awesome! The almond and vanilla extracts give it so much more flavor than most doberge cakes I’ve had The cake is very moist and the frosting is smooth (not gritty like a lot of sugary frostings – bleh) The only reason I gave this 4 instead of 5 stars because: 1) a traditional doberge is yellow cake with chocolate frosting and filling, so I had to omit the chocolate from the batter, and 2) the Filling instructions forget to mention tempering the eggs You can try stirring quickly, but 9 times out of 10 the eggs will cook if you just chuck them into the boiling hot liquid like that You need to lightly whisk the eggs in a separate bowl, pour a small amount of the hot liquid into the eggs while simultaneously stirring with your free hand Then pour the egg mixture back into the pot , This recipe was awesome!
