Certainly! Here’s a recipe for an air fryer chocolate truffle cake:
Air Fryer Chocolate Truffle Cake
Ingredients:
For the Cake:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup buttermilk
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
For the Truffle Topping:
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 8 ounces semisweet chocolate, finely chopped
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Instructions:
- Preheat the Air Fryer:
- Preheat your air fryer to 350°F (175°C) for about 5 minutes.
- Prepare the Cake Batter:
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- Mix the Wet Ingredients:
- In another bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, vegetable oil, egg, and vanilla extract.
- Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients:
- Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring until well combined. Be sure not to overmix.
- Grease and Prepare the Pan:
- Grease a round cake pan that fits in your air fryer. You can use a 6-inch round cake pan or an appropriate-sized silicone mold.
- Pour the Batter:
- Pour the cake batter into the greased pan and spread it out evenly.
- Air Fry the Cake:
- Place the cake pan in the preheated air fryer basket. If your air fryer has multiple racks, use the middle one.
- Cook the cake at 350°F (175°C) for about 20-25 minutes, or until it’s firm and a toothpick or cake tester inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Prepare the Chocolate Truffle Topping:
- In a microwave-safe bowl, heat the heavy cream until it’s almost boiling but not boiling.
- Add the chopped semisweet chocolate, butter, and vanilla extract to the hot cream. Let it sit for a minute to soften the chocolate.
- Stir the mixture until it becomes a smooth and glossy ganache.
- Decorate the Cake:
- Once the cake is done, remove it from the air fryer and let it cool for a few minutes.
- Pour the chocolate truffle ganache over the cooled cake, letting it drip down the sides.
- Chill and Serve:
- Refrigerate the cake for about 30 minutes to allow the ganache to set.
- Slice and serve your delicious air-fried chocolate truffle cake. You can garnish with additional chocolate shavings if desired.
Enjoy your rich and indulgent air-fried chocolate truffle cake!
