Mexican Chocolate Custard Cake with Spiked Marshmallow Whipped Cream

Langkah-langkah

1. To start, make the cake. Preheat the oven to 325°F. Grease a 8 x 8" baking dish and set aside.
2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, cinnamon, chile powder, and salt. In a separate bowl, whip the egg whites to stiff peaks. Set each aside.
3. Melt the butter and set it aside to cool. In one last bowl, beat the egg yolks and sugar together until light. Beat in the cooled, melted butter and vanilla extract until well-combined.
4. Add the cocoa powder mixture to the butter mixture and stir to combine. Whisk in the milk.
5. Fold in the egg whites, then pour the batter into the prepared baking dish. Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until baked and raised around the edges, but still jiggly.
6. Let the cake cool to room temperature, and then put it in the refrigerator to allow it to further set.
7. As the cake cools, prepare the whipped cream.
8. In a medium-sized bowl, whip the cream until stiff peaks form. Mix in the fluff and the tequila until well-combined.
9. Remove the cake from the pan and sprinkle with powdered sugar. Dust very lightly with additional cinnamon and ancho chile powder, if desired. Cut the cake into squares and top each square with a large dollop of whipped cream and a strawberry half before serving.
