Flourless Chocolate Cake

Flourless Chocolate Cake with Cherry Sorbet

This flourless chocolate cake was the Daring Bakers Challenge for February of 2009. It was my first flourless cake, and while it was rather good, I wasn’t happy with the presentation or the photography at all. In fact, if I recall correctly, this was my last Daring Bakers Challenge, and one of the last food photos taken with the point-and-shoot camera, before we finally broke down and bought a DSLR.

There were actually two mini springform pans of cake that I’d originally planned to use for this challenge, but they both fell so drastically that I was forced to make due with these ramekins instead. All in all, a very non-spectacular venture.

Be sure to check out my second (and more successful) attempt at a flourless chocolate cake later this week.
