Chocolate Raspberry Torte

Ingredients:

-

1 cup raspberries

-

7 large eggs, cold

-

14 ounces dark chocolate

-

14 tablespoons butter

-

¼ cup coconut flour

-

1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Directions:

1.

Preheat your oven to 325 degrees F.

2.

Take your 8-inch spring-form pan and find a baking dish big enough to place the spring-form pan down inside it. Make sure the baking dish has sides high enough to hold water part way up the sides of the spring-form pan.

3.

Line the bottom of your spring-form pan with foil and allow the foil to come up the outside of the pan so it is above the water line. This will keep water from seeping into your torte.

4.

Lightly grease the inside of your pan with butter.

5.

Place the raspberries into a blender or food processor and puree until smooth.

6.

Using a mixer, beat the eggs until frothy and doubled in size. (This will take about 6 to 7 minutes).

7.

Place the chocolate and butter into a microwave-safe bowl.

8.

At 30-second intervals, melt the chocolate and butter until smooth.

9.

Add the coconut flour, vanilla, and ½ the raspberry puree to the melted chocolate and stir.

10.

Mix in ½ the frothy eggs into the chocolate mixture.

11.

Once combined, add the remaining eggs, stirring until completely blended.

12.

Spoon the batter into the spring-form pan.

13.

Now place the pan into your rectangular baking dish.

14.

Fill the baking dish with water until the spring-form pan is covered with water part way up the sides.

15.

Carefully place the dish/spring-form pan combo into your preheated oven.

16.

Bake for 20–25 minutes or until the internal temperature of the torte reaches 140 degrees.

17.

Turn off the heat to the oven.

18.

Allow the torte to stay in the oven for another hour.

19.

Remove from the oven and allow it to cool completely.

20.

Now, remove the sides of the spring-form pan and invert the torte onto a plate.

21.

Remove the foil.

22.

Using another plate, invert the torte so it becomes right-side up.

23.

Drizzle the remaining raspberry puree over the torte.

Index of Main Ingredients in Recipes

In this index, I have listed some of the main ingredients used in the recipes. If you are new to the Paleo lifestyle, this index will show you some of the ingredients that are often used in recipes. If you have been eating Paleo for quite awhile, some of the ingredients listed in this index will be items you always keep on hand.

Spices and other condiments are not usually referenced here; however, ones like coconut oil and chicken broth are—mostly to help newbies get used to seeing these ingredients. Seldom used items like crabmeat and bacon are mentioned so you can easily find a recipe that uses these ingredients that you may have on hand and others you want to use up.

Under each item, I have included a link to the recipe where that ingredient is used.
