Chocolate Mulled Wine Cake

Ingredients

• 100 g dark chocolate (70% cocoa)
• 200 g butter
• 125 g honey
• 4 eggs
• 200 g spelt whole‑grain flour
• 100 g spelt flour type 630
• 100 g Ground Almonds
• 40 g cocoa powder
• 1 packet baking powder
• 1 pinch salt
• 120 ml mulled wine
• Erythrit powder for dusting

Instructions

1. 1.

   Coarsely chop the chocolate and melt it over a double boiler. Remove from heat and let cool.

2. 2.

   Beat the butter until creamy, gradually adding the honey. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well. In another bowl combine both flours, almonds, cocoa, baking powder, and salt; alternately fold this dry mixture into the butter‑egg batter with the mulled wine. Fold in the melted chocolate.

3. 3.

   Line a loaf pan with parchment paper. Pour in the dough, smooth the top, and bake in a preheated oven at 180 °C (fan 160 °C) for 50–60 minutes, checking with a skewer.

4. 4.

   Remove the cake from the oven, let it cool, carefully lift it out of the pan, and dust with erythrit powder as desired.
